Skin diseases are mainly caused by the involvement of several micro organism  where Tinea is one among them. Tinea/Ringworm infection is caused by a distinct class of fungi.  They thrive in keratin layer of the epidermis, nails and hair. However, they do not invade the  living epidermis. The serum fungal inhibitory factors in the extra vascular space prevent the  penetration of the fungi in the living tissue. Several factors such as poor nutrition, unhygienic  conditions, hot and humid climate, vocation promoting sweating and maceration, Diabetes  mellitus, debilitating diseases, administration of corticosteroids and immunosuppressive  agent,close and intimate contact with infected persons, animals and fomites predispose to  ringworm infection. It should be noted that 10-15% of the general practitioners work with skin  disorders. 5 out of 1000 people are suffering from Tinea infection. In contemporary Medical science, management of Tinea is carried out with usage  of topical or systemic antifungal, corticosteroids.
