Abstract
Tinea corporis is one of the most commonly fungal known illness resembling several different annular lesions. The usual presentation of tinea corporis is a well-defined, precisely outlined, circular or oval, scaly plaque or patch with slightly erythematous, with an elevated leading edge. Commonly, pruritus is mild. Although the prognosis is frequently clinical, it may be challenging if you've taken corticosteroids or calcineurin inhibitors in the past. A practical and noninvasive diagnostic method is dermoscopy. If required, microscopic analysis of KOH mounted wet preparations of scraped skin from the lesion's active border can be used to confirm the diagnosis. The most reliable method for diagnosing dermatophytosis is fungus culture, particularly when other test findings are unclear, the illness is severe, extensive, or resistant to therapy. Medical professionals need to get knowledgeable about this illness and how to treat it. The purpose of this paper was to present a narrative, up-to-date overview of tinea corporis examination, diagnosis, and therapy.
