Viral skin infections like warts and molluscum contagiosum most commonly affect children between the ages of 2 and 10.

Warts caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) can appear on the hands, feet, or face, while molluscum contagiosum causes small, raised bumps, usually on the face or limbs.

These infections are often mild and may resolve on their own, but treatments like cryotherapy or topical medications can be used if needed.
