Fungal Infections

फंगल संक्रमण

Fungal skin infections are caused by various types of fungi and are extremely common, especially in hot and humid climates. They include ringworm (tinea), candidiasis, and pityriasis versicolor.

Causes

Fungi thrive in warm, moist environments. Tight clothing, excessive sweating, weakened immunity, and shared personal items increase risk.

Treatment approach

Accurate diagnosis is the first step — many conditions mimic fungal infections. We use targeted antifungal medications (topical and oral), along with hygiene guidance and prevention strategies to stop recurrence. Persistent or recurrent cases are investigated for underlying causes.
