When can I have sex after MC after cryotherapy?

I'm a 26 years old male, and I have contracted Molluscum Contagiosum during sex (while using a condom), so it appears only on my pubic hairs area.

Today I went to the dermatologist and he said it doesn't look too serious, but he decided to freeze the warts. He also prescribed Verrumal (fluorouracil 0.5g + salicylic acid 10.0g) to use on the remaining warts after 10 days (if any warts are left).

I would like to know how long will it take until I can have sex again? (protected of course)
The warts are really small, and I'm afraid that in theory there is at least one he didn't freeze...

Thank you for your help!

It could be, I can not recommend trying anything because I can't say what they are. So if it is something else it might not work or it might cause pain. So it is your call to try it or to follow up with your Dr.

I just noticed that I have lots of tiny red macules on my thighs. They are not as big and bulgy as the other ones. Could that be MC as well? Should I try using Verrumal (fluorouracil 0.5g + salicylic acid 10.0g) on them?

Info I got from a trusted friend who has more knowledge then I do...wait until the skin is healed, and to talk to your doctor for any further specifications.   He may say it's ok sooner if there were just a couple of spots, or may want her to wait longer if there
was a lot.
