Mycoses is a group of diseases caused by fungi.The skin areas affect these microorganisms are called dermatomycosis.Sometimes they are combined with onychomycosis - nail disease.Knowing how mushrooms look at the legs, you can cure diseases in a timely manner and prevent complications.There are several options for this pathological process.
The mechanism of foot infection
There are factors that directly affect the possibility of fungal infection.In addition, this issue depends on immunity.As the body's protection is reduced, the probability of developing Mycoses increases significantly.Immune can weaken chronic infectious diseases and pathologies of the endocrine system.You may be infected with a fungus in a straight and indirect way.In the first case, this happens through:
- soil layer;
- Different plants;
- Contact an infected person or animal.
An indirect pathway involves hygiene use and other things that the patient actively uses.
The mushroom of the Candida lives on the surface of the epidermis.When the composition of the sweat glands is separate, a nutritional environment to develop microorganisms is formed.The representative of the Candida group has the pathogenic properties.This means they can easily cause disease.
Classification of mycoses
With epithelium, skin and nails affected.You may be infected in public places: in the gym, sauna.Thereby the objects and pathogens are most common:
- towel;
- towel;
- Oil towel;
- carpet.
Men in adulthood have more frequent evilation.A favorable factor for the development of the disease is an increase in sweat.
Trichophytosis can be caused by different mushrooms from a trichophytons group.The disease is considered very infectious.It is transmitted through shoes where an object is infected, towel, towels, and other shower accessories.More often than the disease found in children.About 17% is the rate of circulation in teenagers.Young boys often suffer.Among men in adulthood, the incidence is even greater.There is a risk of employees of seminars, bathrooms, shower, athletes, miners.
Candida fungus of the stop, compared to epithelium, is less common.Most of the fungi of the Candida limb belongs to conditional disease group.This means that these microorganisms are present on human epidermis in the norm.They have a pathogenic properties after reducing immunity.
Leaving Candida fungus into the body, it is enough to use the objects that belong to the patient.These microorganisms are often present in food products such as meat, milk and milk.The risk of infection increases in the presence of such factors:
- Skin injury due to exposure to chemical, alkaline and acidic components;
- Muff, sweat of the skin;
- The presence of mushrooms in air in large quantities.
Symptoms of the disease
According to the nature of the course, rubramicosis and epithelium are similar.For this reason, experts combine them into one type - Mikoza stops.It is distinguished by scales, dyshidrotic and intertriginosa of its forms.A separate group is onychomycosis, may be:
- atrophy;
- Normotrophic;
- hypertrophy.
With dyshirotic fungal disease, the work of the sweat gland is inhibited.The mushrooms on the fingers with a shape between forms look like a diaper rash.Despite being such a division, it must often be considered conditional, because the various variations of the disease are combined.
Squamous and Dyshidrotic
At first, the shape of the mushroom affects one side.After that, she moved to the opposite.The red areas are formed on the skin, gradually starting to peel off.Personal patients complain about itching.The damage area may be large and small, depending on the patient's body.There are people with the form of Mycosis of this feet, but there is nothing to disturb them.
The mushroom on the skin of the leg has a special dyeing form: a bubble shape with a diameter of 2 to 8 mm in a large form of the feet.Little by little, they began to merge into larger forms, and then break.In their position, ulcerative skin damage is formed.Sometimes the process turns to the internal and external surface.The bubbles are opened, and in their position, you can see the diaper rash areas with erosion.
The fungus on the legs also manifests itching and soreness.The erosion is in the future dry and healing, and peeling is formed in their position.Fungal infections can be complicated by bacteria.In this case, the liquid lying inside the bubble becomes cloudy.The skin on the feet swelled, blushing.A dyeing form is characterized by a long flow.The phase of replacement is relieved with exacerbations.Typically, mushrooms with this form only affects one leg.
Attractive form
It has become the most popular and independent.Less common, this form develops based on the platform of fungal scales.This process affects the area between the fourth and 5 fingers of the feet.The main symptom is the appearance of cracks on the epidermis with white rim.The surface layer of the skin is exfoliating.Between fingers, weakening is formed.Patients complain about burning and itching.In injured areas, quite painful when touching the erosion form.
The form of conspiracy is chronic in most cases, there is a long flow.This condition is improved in the cold and worse season in the summer.In patients with this form, the skin is loosened over time.Its protection functions are reduced.This creates a favorable basis for streptococcal infections.On the epidermis, the abscess is formed, surrounded by swollen and red parts.
Types of onychomycosis
This disease leads to damage to nails on the finger.The pathogens initially attack the freedom of the plate.Here, stripes and stains of a yellow shadow are formed.Several forms of onychomycosis are distinguished:
- Hypertrophy.The nail turns yellow, its thickness increases.He crumbled, and the skin underneath it was peeling and thickening.
- Atrophy.There is an opposite situation, when the nail becomes thin and destroyed.The skin below it is covered by a Keratinized layer.
- Caused by mold.It is formed on the background of other types of nail diseases.The sheet may be green, yellow, brown and sometimes even black.Paronichia is formed in Periologe space - purulent inflammation.
In 70% of cases, onychomycosis affects 3, 4 and 5 fingers on the feet.In 30% of cases, 1 and 4 fingers are affected.Very often, a form of Normotrophic disease is found when the yellow spots are present on the nail, but its integrity is not violated.
Mushroom treatment
There are many treatment programs for the disease selected by a doctor.
Additional treatments include immune and vitamin stimulants.They enhance immunity.If bacterial infections have participated, antibiotics are prescribed.Sometimes the occurrence of fungal infections is preferred by hidden illness.It must be treated in the first place.We are talking about dermatological and chronic infections.Antihistamine is recommended with the presence of an allergic ingredient.
Traditional medicine
Mycoses is not significantly dangerous for health.But their presence helps reduce immunity, acting as a focus of inflammation.Only anti -fungal therapy uses specialized drugs to eliminate such problems.In the early stages, the use of folk recipes is allowed, supplemented by basic therapy.Which methods can be done:
- Check the bathroom;
- Handling areas affected by medicinal herbs;
- Ointment application.
For the bathroom, you can drink vinegar, because it has antiseptic effect.First you need to wash your feet with warm water and dry them.After that, the wine vinegar is poured into water in the ratio of 1 to 2 and the legs are lowered.They kept them there for 5 minutes, then they took socks at night and went to bed.
Another version of the bath is related to the use of soda and salt.Take one tablespoon of both components and dissolve in water.After that, lower your feet into the solution, hold for no more than 15 minutes.At the end of the procedure, the foot is washed with warm water.
To treat foot with decoctions, these drugs can be used and Calendula's pattern.In addition, oak bark, dry black fruit has good antiseptic effect.The selected components are mixed with the same amount.3 tablespoons.l.And pour a glass of water.Put in low heat for 15 minutes.Filter and moisturize the damage of decoction with decoction.In addition, this tool can be used for creams.
To prepare a healing ointment, they mix in the same amount of pork fat and a sieve ash.The ointment results should be thick and consistent.It is applied to clean and dry legs twice a day: in the morning and evening.
