WHAT
IS FUNGUS INFECTION OF
THE TORSO, GROIN, AND
HANDS and FEET AREAS?
Generally speaking, common
fungus infections of the torso, hands and
feet areas (topical infections)
are caused by a variety of fungi; actual living organisms
(members of the yeast and mold family)
which exist in varying degrees, at all
times in nature, and tend to thrive
in dark, damp and moist conditions...in the soil...on animals as well as humans. These
organisms may penetrate
the skin's surface through even the smallest crack
or tear, may be spread from
animals to humans and may be spread among humans. Common topical fungus infections
generally fall into three categories:
microsporum (hair and skin), epidermophyton (skin and nails), and trichophyton
(hair, skin and nails).
Among the more common fungi are tinea cruris which can cause jock
itch, E.
floccosum which can
cause ringworm infection
and affects the torso, hands and feet, on and
in between the fingers
including the skin around the fingernails; also T. rubrum
and T. mentagrophytes, which
can cause athlete's foot and infect the feet, on and between the
toes including the skin
around the toenails. Often such infections develop
slowly and may be difficult
to treat if not attended to promptly and treated appropriately with
an effective anti-fungal medicine.
HOW DO YOU KNOW IF YOU HAVE A
TOPICAL FUNGUS INFECTION?
Topical fungal
infections can affect anyone, but
men typically experience a higher
incidence of jock itch than women. The appearance of jock itch
can be characterized as:
- A circular, reddish-brown,
raised rash with elevated edges in the groin and/or
thigh area.
- Itching, chafing, burning
or skin redness.
- Flaking,
peeling or cracking skin.
Some topical fungus
infections may present themselves on the skin as ring-like formations with
clear centers, commonly referred to as ringworm.
Other such infections, when
on the feet, or finger and toe areas, are often characterized by scaling
of the skin, burning, cracking,
itching and related discomforts. When nails
become infected, they may appear to
become opaque (cloudy white), thickened, brittle, friable
(easily broken) and
in some cases, discolored (greenish/brown).
WHAT ARE CAUSES OF JOCK ITCH AND OTHER FUNGAL
INFECTIONS?
Jock Itch, like
other fungal infections, can develop under a variety of conditions, including:
- Hot and humid
weather conditions that can cause perspiration
to accumulate.
- Friction caused by wearing tight, damp or perspiration-soaked
clothing for an extended period
of time
(e.g. exercise or bathing
suit garments).
- Sharing
clothes or towels with others who have a fungal infection.

and treating fungus infection
early is very important
for successful results, so it

HOW TO AVOID
RECURRENCE OF
FUNGUS INFECTION:
- Good personal hygiene

the skin invites fungus to invade.
