Tinea femoris often occurs on the skin of the thigh opposite the scrotum, on one or both sides, and is mostly annular or semi-annular patches. Initially, a small patch of erythema appears on the inner side of the upper thigh, with scaling on it, and gradually expands and spreads to the surrounding area, with clear boundaries, and papules, blisters, and scabs on it. The central part can heal on its own, with pigmentation or scaling. Over time, the local skin will become infiltrated and thickened, showing lichenification, often accompanied by itching. In severe cases, it often expands to the inner side of the thigh, perineum or around the anus, and its lower edge is mostly clear. Sometimes it can also affect the scrotum, the base of the penis, etc.
