After being infected by pathogenic bacteria, the symptoms are different in different parts, which can be roughly divided into the following categories:

  • Scaling: There are obvious peeling symptoms in the affected area, which is manifested as scaly patches, and tinea capitis is the majority;
  • Papules and blisters: papules and blisters appear in the affected area, and the liquid inside will also peel after drying;
  • Breakage and erosion: the diseased area is soaked with sweat and whitish, and there is oozing, which is easy to be further infected by other germs;
  • Chapping and bleeding: The skin in the affected area becomes rough and dry, and it is easy to bleed after chapping.

For people with ringworm, not only is the image affected, but people can see obvious patches on the skin at a glance, and what is even more painful is that it is too itchy!
