Appointment Online Dermatology Fungal Infections of the Skin Skin fungi live in the dead, top layer of skin cells in moist areas of the body, such as between the toes, groin, and under the breasts. These fungal infections cause only a small amount of irritation. Other types of fungal infections penetrate deeper and may cause itching, swelling, blistering, and scaling. In some cases, fungal infections can cause reactions elsewhere on the body. For example, a person may develop a rash on the finger or hand after touching an infected foot. There are many types of fungal skin infections. Listed in the directory below are some, for which we have provided a brief overview.

Topical treatments for fungal infections of the skin and nails of the foot. (Cochrane Review)
Crawford F, Hart R, Bell-Syer S, Torgerson D, Young P, Russell I. ABSTRACT A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 10 May 1999. Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary. Background: Dermatophyte infection has been estimated to affect the feet of 15% of the general population. Whilst superficial fungal infections are not life-threatening they are associated with considerable morbidity and dermatophytes can be difficult to treat. Clinicians faced with a public demand for effective treatments have a difficult task. Topical preparations are much cheaper than orally administered antifungal agents. Most are over the counter preparations but more expensive topical preparations are available as prescription only medicines. Objectives: The objective of this review is to identify and evaluate the evidence of efficacy for topical treatments for fungal infections of the skin and nails of the human foot. To establish the effectiveness of topical treatments in achieving a cured condition and in preventing recurrence Search strategy: Randomised controlled trials were identified from the MEDLINE, EMBASE and CINHAL databases, from the beginning of these databases to December 1997. Also we screened the Cochrane Controlled Trials Register, the Science Citation Index BIOSIS, CAB - Health, Healthstar and Economic databases. References and unpublished studies were searched, podiatry journals handsearched and the pharmaceutical industry contacted.

Oral treatments for fungal infections of the skin of the foot. (Cochrane Review)
Bell-Syer SEM, Hart R, Crawford F, Torgerson DJ,Tyrrell W, Russell I ABSTRACT A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 05 December 2001. Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary. Background: About 15% of the population have fungal infections of the feet (tinea pedis or athlete's foot). Whilst there are many clinical presentations of tinea pedis the most common are between the toes (interdigital) and on the soles, heels and sides of the foot (plantar) which is known as moccasin foot. Once acquired the infection can spread to other sites including the nails, which can be a source of reinfection. Oral therapy is usually used for chronic conditions or when topical treatment has failed. Objectives: To assess the effects and costs of oral treatments for fungal infections of the skin of the foot (tinea pedis). Search strategy: Randomised controlled trials were identified from MEDLINE, EMBASE and CINAHL from the beginning of these databases to January 2000. We also searched the Cochrane Controlled trials Register (Cochrane Library issue 1, 2000) the Science Citation Index, BIOSIS, CAB-Health, Health star and Economic databases. Bibliographies were searched, podiatry journals hand searched and the pharmaceutical industry and schools of podiatry contacted.

About The Cochrane Library A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 20 January 2002. Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary. Background: Systemic fungal infection is considered to be an important cause of morbidity and mortality in cancer patients, particularly those with neutropenia. Antifungal drugs are often given prophylactically, or to patients with persistent fever. Objectives: To compare the effect of fluconazole and amphotericin B on morbidity and mortality in patients with cancer complicated by neutropenia. Search strategy: MEDLINE and Cochrane Library (November 2001). Letters, abstracts, and unpublished trials. The industry and authors were contacted. Selection criteria: Randomised trials comparing fluconazole with amphotericin B.

FUNGAL INFECTIONS
If you suspect tinea please send generous scrapings of the skin or clippings of the nail to the Laboratory for direct examination and culture and please send these specimens before you start treatment with systemic or topical anti-fungals.
NOTES:
Think of tinea in any scaly rash that is not obviously psoriasis or eczema etc.
Asymmetrical scaly rashes should alert you to the possibility of tinea.
Nail dystrophy. Do undress the patients and look carefully for psoriasis.
Remember that candida does not respond to Griseofulvin or systemic Terbinafine (Lamisil).
Scalp ringworm and kerion do not respond to topical anti-fungal treatment alone.
Terbinafine (Lamisil) Itraconazole (Sporanox This has the advantage of treating yeasts (such as candida) as well as dermatophytes. It is often prescribed for nails in the Sporanox Pulse form, giving it for one week out of four.
Pityriasis Versicolor
Use Nizoral Shampoo, or Cream if localised, or alternatively Selsun Shampoo. If very widespread give Itraconazole (Sporanox) orally 200 mg per day for seven days. Pityriasis Images Index More than you usually need or want to know about fungi, but useful for looking up odd reports from the local laboratory.
