Overview

Tinea Manuum is a parasitic fungal infection (mycosis) of the hand in the dermatophytosis (tinea) group. It is typically more aggressive than tinea pedis but similar in look. Itching, burning, cracking, and scaling are observable and may be transmitted sexually or otherwise, whether or not symptoms are present.
