Fungal Skin Infections :

Fungal Skin Infection is a common condition affecting an estimated million population. As the name suggests fungal skin infections are caused by fungi and are medically termed as mycosis. Fungi live everywhere and can be found in the air, soil, plants, surfaces, skin or even inside the body. These microscopic organisms usually do not cause any issues for the skin unless they penetrate the skin through a cut or a lesion and multiply faster than normal.

These organisms develop in warm and moist environment, in sweaty and damp areas such as nails, groin, in between the toes and fingers where there is poor air flow. Ring worm, Candidiasis, jock itch (tinea cruris), Tinea versicolor, Athlete's foot (tinea pedis), Onychomycosis are some of the common fungal skin infections encountered.

Which methods are used to diagnose Fungal Skin Infections?

Fungal infection has traditionally been diagnosed using methods such as direct microscopic examination of clinical specimens, culture, and histopathology. Personnel with a high level of specific mycology training are required for such approaches.
Frequently Asked Questions
CARD deficiency is a genetic immune disorder characterized by susceptibility to yeast fungus candida infections such as candidiasis. A deficiency of vitamin D may weaken the immune system response, increasing the likelihood of infection, which includes fungal infections.
The common parasites that resemble mold and live on the skin's surface are what cause the contagious fungus infection known as ringworm. Skin fungal infection (Ringworm) is frequently transmitted by direct skin-to-skin contact with an infected person.
Fungal skin rashes are unpleasant and itchy. However, they can be treated. If you start noticing any rashes or changes in your skin, consult the best doctors for skin fungal infections in Kolkata.
