early molluscum

The first two photos are from the molluscum on my lower back. I sent oh photos to the doctor and they said it doesn’t look like it entirely but i should treat it as though it is. there are clearly a few bumps in the area, probably because i scratched it before i realised what it was. the last two photos are of a spot i picked on my arm. does this look like molluscum? i picked it like a week ago and it’s still red, it’s not raised at all completely flat but seems to have a sort of dip in the middle. i do have keratosis pilaris and i can’t tell if it’s just from this but usually when i’ve picked it before it hasn’t stayed so red. really worried about this spreading and ive been applying tea tree oil twice a day to try and speed up the bursting process. i keep checking my skin all the time and im really paranoid about it ruining my appearance

any advice is so appreciated
