Fungal Infection

Fungi love warm folds — groins, feet, under the breasts, and the scalp in children.

Fungal Infection

Fungi love warm folds — groins, feet, under the breasts, and the scalp in children.

A steroid cream will fade the red and then the ring returns wider. We use an antifungal for the right number of weeks and keep the area dry.

Understand

What we explain in clinic

Ring & scale

Look

An expanding circle with a clearer centre and a scaly edge.

Scalp

Kids

Patchy hair loss with scale can be tinea capitis, not ordinary dandruff.

Sweat

Why

Tight synthetics, shared towels and monsoon humidity.

Weeks

Course

Stopping on day five because it ‘looks gone’ is why it comes back.

Evaluation

What we look for

Confirm

Edge

We look at the active border. A scrape is done when the picture is mixed.

Medicine

Match

Cream for small patches; tablets when hair or wide skin is involved.

Dry

Habit

Change socks, dust folds, and do not share combs or towels.

Steroid

Stop

Any ‘fairness’ or mixed cream on the ring has to stop.

At Grace Clinic

How care is planned

01

Skin mapping

We examine the rash, hair, nails or scars in good light and note triggers, duration and earlier treatment.

02

Clear diagnosis

Where needed we advise tests, biopsy or dermoscopy so treatment is specific, not trial-and-error.

03

A plan you can follow

Creams, procedures or laser are explained in simple steps, with a review date at Grace Clinic.

When to book

Book if a ring is spreading despite cream, the scalp is involved, or nails are thickening too.
