FUNGAL INFECTIONS OF THE SKIN

Fungal infections of the skin are very common. They can include athlete’s foot, ringworm or jock itch. Fungal infections can even occur in the scalp and trunk. Different infections can manifest in different ways. On the feet, they can appear as red scaly itchy lesions in the webbing of the toes or the sole of your foot whereas ringworm can appear as bright red patches anywhere on the skin. Some can even appear as white or light pink circles on the trunk or back. The dermatology professionals at Modern Dermatology of KY can assess your skin lesions and discuss the most appropriate treatment options depending on your condition.
