OVERVIEW Tinea cruris, corporis, and pedis, named for the body sites involved, are superficial fungal infections (dermatophytosis) caused by 3 genera of dermatophytes: Trichophyton, Microsporum, and Epidermophyton.49 These dermatophytes are a homogenous group of fungi that live on the keratin of the stratum corneum, nails, and hair. The estimated lifetime risk of acquiring tinea infections is between 10% and 20%.50 Dryness of the skin’s outer layer discourages colonization by microorganisms and shedding of epidermal cells keeps many microbes from establishing residence.51 With inhibition or failure of the skin’s protective mechanisms, cutaneous infection may occur with subsequent pruritus, redness, and scaling. Since dermatophytes require keratin for growth, they are restricted to hair, nails, and superficial skin; therefore, most can be treated with topical antifungal medications. Tinea pedis (athlete’s foot) is 1 of the most common superficial fungal infections of the skin and is most often caused by the dermatophytes Trichophyton rubrum, Trichophyton mentagrophytes, and Epidermophyton floccosum.52 Affected skin
