What is a Fungal Infection?

Fungal infections occur when fungus (such as dermatophytes or yeast) grows on the skin due to moisture, sweating, poor hygiene, or low immunity. They can spread easily from one area to another and may become chronic without proper medical treatment.

  • Ringworm (Tinea)
  • Jock itch (Tinea Cruris)
  • Athlete’s foot (Tinea Pedis)
  • Scalp fungal infection
  • Nail fungus (Onychomycosis)

Common Causes of Fungal Infections

  • Excess sweating & humid climate
  • Wearing tight clothes or synthetic fabric
  • Sharing towels, shoes, clothes (highly contagious)
  • Weak immunity / diabetes
  • Poor hygiene and wet skin
  • Using steroid creams without doctor advice
Warning: Many fungal infections worsen due to wrong OTC creams containing steroids. Always consult a dermatologist for safe treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is fungal infection contagious?

Yes. Fungal infections can spread through direct skin contact or by sharing towels, clothing, shoes, bedsheets, etc.

Why does fungal infection keep coming back?

Recurrence happens due to sweating, incomplete treatment course, wrong steroid creams, reinfection from clothes/towels, or untreated family members.

How long does fungal infection treatment take?

Mild cases may improve in 1–2 weeks. Severe or recurring infections may require 4–8 weeks or more depending on condition.

Can I use OTC creams for fungal infection?

Self-medication can worsen infection, especially steroid-mixed creams. Dermatologist consultation is the safest choice.
