Dermatophytosis, commonly known as a fungal skin infection or ringworm, is caused by fungi that grow on the skin, hair, or nails. It can affect areas such as the feet, groin, scalp, body, or nails and may cause itching, redness, scaling, or ring-shaped rashes. Fungal skin infections can spread through close contact with an infected person or animal, or through shared items such as towels, clothing, footwear, and personal-care equipment. Keeping the skin clean and dry, avoiding shared personal items, and changing damp clothing promptly can help reduce the risk of spread. Treatment depends on the affected area and severity. A dermatologist may recommend antifungal creams, lotions, or oral medicines when appropriate. Avoid using steroid-containing creams without professional advice, as they may sometimes worsen or mask a fungal infection. Consult a dermatologist if a rash persists, spreads, affects the scalp or nails, or does not improve with appropriate care. Accurate diagnosis is important because several skin conditions can resemble fungal infections.
