The clinical aspects distinguish diverse tinea on the scalp, distinct tinea of glabrous skin corresponding to lesions on the body, face, large folds as well as on palms and soles. Nails are also affected by dermatophytes. According to the involved area, the antifungal treatments are adapted to the nature and location of the fungus.
