Symptoms of skin fungal infection

summary

First of all, we need to know what is a fungus, in order to further know the symptoms of infection caused by it. Fungi are actually eukaryotes, and their main way of survival is through parasitism or saprophytic survival, so it is very likely to parasitize on human skin and survive. Because parasitism is that fungi absorb nutrients from the human body to survive, so the human skin will be invaded, and the fungi parasitize in different parts of the human body and can be divided into superficial fungi and deep fungi. For example, parasitic in the intestine is fungal enteritis, belonging to deep fungal disease. The symptoms of skin fungal infection now tell us.

Symptoms of skin fungal infection

Superficial fungi mainly parasitize on the surface skin, hair, fingernails and toenails of the human body, which will cause these skin diseases: obvious erythema will appear in the parts contacted by fungi, and there will be serious peeling phenomenon, and even skin itching, and the more scratching, the more itching. In winter this phenomenon often think it is dry peeling. If it's dry and peeled, it will get better soon.

Deep fungi mainly parasitize in the internal skin, mucosa, viscera and other deep tissues of the human body, which often cause systemic infection, and show the following symptoms: the most common deep fungal infection is fungal enteritis. Most patients will have muscle twitch or twitch symptoms, and the injured part will also have exudates or fallen tissue blocks, which should be done in time for a medical examination.

The main symptoms of superficial fungal infection are erythema, peeling and itching, which can be seen by naked eyes. Deep fungal infection must be carefully diagnosed by detailed bacteriological examination and pathological examination. So fungal infection can't be ignored. In particular, we must pay attention to the use of antibiotics in combination with the treatment when we find the exudate in the skin infected by fungi

matters needing attention

Because fungi are parasitic, so we usually want to keep the parts easy to be infected dry and clean, often wash hands with soapy water, in order to avoid contact with fungi. Once parasitized by fungi, must be timely with clotrimazole cream, and keep the skin dry in order to get better quickly!
