Dermatophytid treatment in Aguascalientes

Dermatophytid is a skin reaction that appears at a distance from a fungal infection (dermatophytes) located in another part of the body. It is not an infection itself, but a hypersensitivity response of the body to the fungus.

How it presents: it usually appears as small blisters, redness or itching, frequently on the hands or feet, without the fungus being present in that area.

Relationship to the infection: it tends to improve when the original fungal infection that triggers it is treated.

Who to see? The dermatologist, and the pediatric dermatologist in children, are the ones suited to distinguish this reaction from other skin conditions and guide management. If you notice skin outbreaks along with a fungal infection, a specialized consultation clarifies the picture.
