2. Tinea Infections: Athlete's Foot, Jock Itch And Ringworm Brochure from the American Academy of Family Physicians explaining tinea infections, symptoms, treatments and prevention techniques. http://familydoctor.org/handouts/316.html

Information from Your Family Doctor Tinea Infections: Athlete's Foot, Jock Itch and Ringworm What is tinea? Tinea is a fungus that can grow on your skin, hair or nails. As it grows, it spreads out in a circle, leaving normal-looking skin in the middle. This makes it look like a ring. At the edge of the ring, the skin is lifted up by the irritation and looks red and scaly. To some people, the infection looks like a worm is under the skin. Because of the way it looks, tinea infection is often called "ringworm." However, there really isn't a worm under the skin. How did I get a fungal infection? You can get a fungal infection by touching a person who has one. Some kinds of fungi live on damp surfaces, like the floors in public showers or locker rooms. You can easily pick up a fungus there. You can even catch a fungal infection from your pets. Dogs and cats, as well as farm animals, can be infected with a fungus. Often this infection looks like a patch of skin where fur is missing. What areas of the body are affected by tinea infections? Fungal infections are named for the part of the body they infect. Tinea corporis is a fungal infection of the skin on the body. ("Corporis" is the Latin word for body.) If you have this infection, you may see small, red spots that grow into large rings almost anywhere on your arms, legs or chest.

Overweight men are more likely to develop jock itch if they sweat a lot or have folds of touching skin. Tight clothing and hot, humid weather are other risk factors. Men who play sports and use a male athletic guard are particularly prone to tinea infection. Sweaty equipment left in a locker makes an ideal environment for tinea to grow. The fungi can lie on towels, floors such as communal showers at the Gym or at the beach locker room. Sharing towels, combs, and shoes with other bodybuilders can easily transmit fungal infections. Since the same dermatophytes can cause different types of tinea, it is not uncommon for bodybuilders with athlete's foot to get jock itch by toweling his feet before his groin.

Tinea Cruris I. Definition: "Jock itch" refers to any itching groin rash of men. There are many causes of jock itch; when it is caused by a fungus, the rash is known as tinea cruris. The fungus causing tinea cruris prefers moist, warm skin; this is why tinea cruris favors the groin area and is often worse in hot weather. Not all groin rashes are tinea cruris, only those caused by fungus growing on the skin. II. Causes: Tinea cruris is caused by a fungus. Tinea cruris is not contagious; direct person to person contact rarely leads to spreading of tinea cruris. III.

If your rash does not improve, please return for further evaluation.

Jock Itch (Tinea Cruris) What is Tinea Cruris? Treatment Prevention Measures What is Tinea Cruris? Tinea cruris, or "jock itch", is a superficial fungus infection of the groin and upper inner thighs which most commonly starts in hot humid weather. It is caused by common fungus organisms that grow easily in warm, moist areas of the skin. A rash appears which is red to tan or brown in color, slightly scaly, and usually has a fairly sharp and distinct margin. There may be central clearing. It usually does not affect the scrotum and penis. Not every groin rash is due to fungal infection. Intertrigo (mechanical rubbing, and moisture), psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis, candidal (yeast) infections, and several other skin diseases can mimic fungal infections of the groin. Treatment Antifungal creams may be required. Miconazole cream can be purchased over the counter. If that is not helpful, several prescription creams are available from your dermatologist. These creams should be applied once or twice a day in a thin layer, spreading the cream at least a half inch beyond the margin of the rash. Treatment should be continued for one week after the rash goes away to prevent reoccurrences.
