Fungal Infections:Fungus thrives in humidity – wet skin
folds rubbing against each other get macerated easily, providing easy
entry to fungi and yeast. As a result, you develop itchy, circular,
reddish, flaky patches on the body, especially in skin folds at the
groin, underarms and around the breasts in women. Fungal infections can
also affect your feet, especially if you wear closed shoes all day.
Staying dry is the best way to avoid fungal infection. Use plenty of
talcum powder to prevent accumulation of sweat and moisture in skin
folds.
