Skin fungus

The skin fungus on the legs also gained strong distribution, like nail fungus.

This type of disease is caused by microscopic microbes, yeast mushrooms and candidate mushrooms.The skin fungus is usually called dermata mycosis.

  • Cracks on the heels and soles of the foot

The skin fungus, like nail fungus, requires prolonged comprehensive treatment.Basically, ointments and creams with antifungal components are used for dermatomycosis.

Along with external creams, antifungal agents are often prescribed for internal use.But if the creams can be bought at a pharmacy without a prescription, then consultation and appointment of a specialist are needed here.

There are several types of fungal skin lesions:

    The interdigital form of the fungus
