Symptoms of tinea cruris: itchy thighs, red spots, and pigmentation

Tinea corporis mostly occurs near the genitals or anus, that is, near the inner thigh root. Tinea corporis has obvious itching sensation, and after scratching, red spots with debris or small red bumps will appear.

As the tinea cruris continues to develop, other small rashes may develop after scratching the red spots or red bumps, and eventually the skin may even break down. If the tinea cruris gradually heals, there will be obvious pigmentation, such as purple or black spots on the corresponding skin.

Causes of tinea cruris: fungal infection or infection

Tinea cruris is caused by fungal infection. This fungus likes to live in moist and dark skin, so it is often close to the reproductive organs. Tinea cruris fungi are generally transmitted through infection. Autoinfection means that there are tinea in other parts of the body, and if it accidentally touches the thigh root, the conditions are suitable, and the tinea cruris fungus will directly begin to reproduce. Heteroinfection means that it is caused by infection from others, and the rate of infection through sexual contact is relatively high.
