Hot, humid Chennai weather makes fungal infections common and easy to spread. At Muthu Skin, Hair & Laser Clinic, our dermatologists provide accurate diagnosis and targeted antifungal care to clear the infection, soothe itching and prevent recurrence.
Tinea/Ringworm (body, groin “jock itch”, foot “athlete’s foot”, hand)
Tinea faciei (face), Tinea capitis (scalp)
Onychomycosis (fungal nail)
Pityriasis versicolor (Tinea versicolor) – light/dark patches with fine scaling
Candidiasis (skin folds, corners of mouth), diaper-area yeast infections
Itchy, red, ring-shaped rashes or scaly borders
Groin/under-bust rashes that keep returning
Thick, discoloured nails or nail crumbling
White/brown patches on chest/back that don’t tan evenly
Recurrence after OTC creams—especially if they contained steroids
Keep folds cool & dry; change of sweaty clothes quickly
Choose breathable cotton/linen; avoid tight synthetics
Use separate towels; wash socks/innerwear daily
Dust antifungal powder in shoes/groin during Chennai summers
Do not use steroid-mixed OTC creams; they worsen fungal spread
