Ringworm (tinea or ringworm or) are infections of the skin or nails caused by filamentous fungi.
Dermatophytes are pathogenic always absent from the commensal flora permanent or transient skin.
The natural resistance of zebu to Gudali dermatophytoses from other cattle raised in the same region has not yet been the subject of research.
These are injuries to the achievement of the hair.
They are suffering from the glabrous skin.
This often neglected area topographic is not to be taken lightly. Indeed, we must know that places like the dermatophytes, hot, humid and dark. Most times, drying between the toes is totally forgotten, or moisture associated with the heat and confinement of the foot in the shoe make it a culture broth. the primary disease is often ignored, it begins with a light exfoliation, painless, and then gradually becomes itchy, the final stage is the cracking of the interdigital space that is painful and whose main complication is infection. (At that time, the scratching can cause contamination to the body). This source of infection is the main cause of onychomycosis. So always think of treating the foot and between toes not to risk a subsequent recontamination. It must be extremely careful when ground diabetic arteritis, chronic venous insufficiency, or postoperative complications because many are: lymphangitis, erysipelas, septicemia, necrosis of the toes. Fungal infections of the feet are one of the most common infections of the feet (10% of the French population is suffering from onychomycosis).
This is a lesion that starts with an attack of the free edge of the nail, with a yellowish spot / tan, slow expansion. It usually begins with the lateral edge of the nail. Then gives the so-called rocket dermatophyte (a kind of arrow from the free edge to the matrix), once the nail plate completely reached the final stage is the total onychodystrophy. Onychomycosis does NOT evolve to spontaneous healing.
Are allergic to the remote site of infection. The appearance is that of a pompholyx, but can also look like a vine herpes, although there is nobody here dermatophyte (also called mycétide lesion).
Again, diagnosis and treatment must be precise to avoid high costs and time lost.
In cases of suspected fungal infections:
Essential step of the process:
The mycological sampling must be performed by qualified personnel (biologist and laboratory technician). A good harvest will ensure effective treatment. The sample must be taken away from any antifungal treatment (treatment, it has been started must have been stopped at least 1-2 months before the sampling). For skin damage, the biologist must scrape the scales for analysis (direct examination and culture). For a violation of the nails, the biologist must take THE LIMIT OF THE NAIL HEALTHY, indeed, it is only here that the fungus could be found. It is generally easier to make a mycological examination of skin appendages in a teaching hospital or CHR (because of the number of qualified personnel available). The result is issued 3-5 weeks after sampling.
The diagnosis is made after deduction (s), microscopic examination and cultures. The treatment with griseofulvin is now considered obsolete. The main substances used are terbinafine (Lamisil) and azoles (fluconazole and itraconazole). .
