Skin fungal infections
by sana sim (2019-01-19)
Many fungal diseases are only mild in nature and usually cause very little damage. For instance, skin fungal infections normally cause a rash. However, some fungal infections can be life threatening, such as fungal meningitis and bloodstream infections. Some of the most common fungal infections are ringworms, candidiasis albicans, onychomycosis, jock itch, athlete’s foot, and yeast infections. Some are more difficult to kill than others are. A good example is onychomycosis, which is a fungal infection that occurs in the nail bed. Since the infection is underneath the nail, it’s difficult to reach and treat.
