Most people will develop some resistance to skin fungus after being infected. Others appear to have a susceptibility to fungal infections. Sometime the susceptibility will run in the family. Tinea pedis (athlete's foot) This is the commonest type of fungal infection. It is the most common and most stubborn cause of tinea pedis and only affects humans. It is spread by direct contact, most often through bare feet in bathrooms and health clubs. Leather or plastic footwear that doesn't "breathe" encourages tinea pedis. It is rare in children. In most cases, the skin be comes white, soft and peels away between the toes (especially between the fourth and little toes). It may infect the sole of the foot. resulting in peeling, scaling, itching and sometimes blistering. Only one, or both feet may be involved. Onychomycosis (Tinea Ungium of the nail) Toe nail infection is usually associated with tinea pedis. It is very difficult to eradicate.

    Extractions: Athlete's foot is the name given to a common fungal infection that occurs on the feet. The infection is one of the group called tinea by physicians, and the full name tinea pedis, refers to a fungal infection and its location ( pedis means "foot"). Other locations for tinea infection include the scalp ( tinea capitis, or ringworm), the genitals ( tinea cruris ), the nails ( tinea unguium ), and the entire body ( tinea corporis The various fungi responsible for athlete's foot thrive in warm, moist, enclosed places, such as that found inside poorly ventilated shoes and sweaty socks. The infection in the feet causes the skin between the toes to become itchy and sore, to crack and sometimes peel away. Most commonly, the space between the fourth and fifth toe is affected. Athlete's foot plagues more men than women, and rarely occurs in children under age 12. It is most common during the hot, humid months. Sometimes, the infection can clear up spontaneously, simply by improving foot hygiene and wearing better-ventilated shoes. Though harmless, the condition needs to be treated so it doesn't spread further. Left untreated, the infection can spread over the entire foot and into the nails, or a secondary bacterial infection may develop as well. Return to Top

Zoophilic dermatophytes primarily infect animals, but they may be transmitted from animals to humans. Microsporum canis and Trichophyton mentagrophytes are the most common of the zoophilic dermatophytes that occasionally infect humans.(1) Less common and clinically less significant species are Trichophyton verrucosum, Microsporum equinum, Microsporum gallinae and Microsporum nanum.(2) M. canis and T mentagrophytes infect many different animals, both wild and domestic.(1) The other zoophilic dermatophyte species are animal-specific, with T verrucosum infecting cattle, M. equinum infecting horses, M. gallinae infecting chickens and M. nanum infecting pigs. The clinical appearance of these fungal infections in animals varies from subclinical lesions to widespread, crusted plaques with hair loss. Cattle and horses present with discrete round plaques of hair loss covered with a thick, whitish gray crust.

    Extractions: Overview Athlete's foot (tinea pedis) is a common persistent infection of the foot caused by a microscopic fungus that lives on dead tissue of the hair, toenails, and outer skin layers (dermatophyte). These fungi thrive in warm, moist environments such as shoes, stockings, and the floors of public showers, locker rooms, and swimming pools. Athlete's foot is transmitted through contact with a cut or abrasion on the bottom (plantar surface) of the foot. In rare cases, the fungus is transmitted from infected animals to humans. Dermatophyte (skin) infections cause raised, circular pimples or blisters that resemble the lesions caused by ringworm. The infections are named for the part of the body they infect; therefore, tinea pedis refers to an infection of the feet.

Determining whether athletes should or should not be disqualified from practice or competition because of these infections requires some expertise. Recommendations are presented to assist the practitioner in the care of these conditions in wrestlers and other athletes who have frequent skin-to-skin contact. T he management of skin infections in wrestlers and other athletes in sports involving skin-to-skin contact is challenging, from making an accurate diagnosis to determining eligibility for play. The two most common skin infections in wrestlers are tinea and herpes simplex, although the same issues are relevant to rugby, football, and other sports that require skin-to-skin contact. Based on the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) injury surveillance system, of the skin infections reported from 1991 to 2003, herpes accounted for 39% and tinea represented 23% (figure 1). Herpes infections in athletes have been described in the medical literature for many years. The first report
