Fungus on Feet
It is a superficial mycosis classified as dermatophytoses or ringworm. These are produced by fungi called dermatophytes, including Trichophyton species, Microsporum and Epidermophyton. When the mushrooms are placed in a certain region of the Skin, is called “tinea” or “jock.”
In the case of athlete’s foot, the fungus that produces it is tinea pedis, which takes place in hot and humid.
