Fungal Infections

Fungal infections are caused by fungi, microorganisms that can lead to a variety of diseases affecting different parts of the body. Fungi are widespread in the environment and can invade the body, causing health issues.

  • Athlete's foot (tinea pedis): This common fungal infection primarily affects the feet, causing itching, burning, redness, and peeling of the skin, especially between the toes.
  • Ringworm (tinea corporis): Ringworm is a fungal infection that can appear anywhere on the body. It is characterized by a red, ring-shaped rash with clear skin in the center, which may be itchy or painful.
  • Yeast infections: Caused by an overgrowth of Candida fungi, including Candida albicans, yeast infections can affect the mouth (oral thrush), genitals (vaginal yeast infection), and skin folds. Symptoms typically include itching, redness, swelling, and white discharge.
