    Dermatophytosis is a superficial fungal infection of the skin, nails, and hair caused by Trichophyton, Microsporum, and Epidermophyton fungi. It typically presents as scaly, red patches with well-defined borders that are sometimes very itchy. Lesions often have a ring-like appearance and can vary in appearance depending on the infecting fungus. Common symptoms include circular or ring-shaped rashes that may spread and cause skin inflammation and damage in the infected areas, most often occurring on exposed areas of the body like the neck, trunk, and extremities.
