Dear Taylor Jock itch is a pretty common fungal infection of the groin and thighs and leg. It is section of a small grouping of fungal skin illness called tinea. The medical name for jock itch is tinea cruris. Jock itch, like other tinea infections, is a result of several types of mold-like fungi called dermatophytes. All of us have microscopic fungi and bacteria living figure, and dermatophytes are one of them. Dermatophytes go on the dead tissues of the epidermis, hair, and nails and thrive in warm, moist areas much like the insides in the thighs. So, if the groin area gets sweaty and is not dried properly, it possesses a great perfect environment for your fungi to multiply and thrive. You should use Miconazole as local application which is an imidazole antifungal agent, commonly applied topically to the skin or to mucus membranes to cure fungal infections. It works by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, a critical component of fungal cell membranes. In addition to its antifungal and antiparasitic actions, it also has some limited antibacterial properties. It is marketed in various formulations under various brand names. You should also maintain the personnel hygiene and avoid using other persons towel. With regard J S Chowhan |
