Project Description
Intertrigo
Intertrigo is an inflammatory condition of skin folds, induced or aggravated by heat, moisture, maceration, friction, and lack of air circulation.
The condition frequently is worsened or colonized by infection, which most commonly is candidal but also may be bacterial, fungal, or viral.
An intertrigo usually develops from the chafing of warm, moist skin in the areas of the inner thighs and genitalia, the armpits, under the breasts, the underside of the belly, behind the ears, and the web spaces between the toes and fingers.
An intertrigo usually appears red and raw-looking, and may also itch, ooze, and be sore.
Intertrigos occur more often among overweight individuals, those with diabetes, those restricted to bed rest or diaper use, and those who use medical devices, like artificial limbs, that trap moisture against the skin.
Also, there are several skin diseases that can cause an intertrigo to develop, such as dermatitis or inverse psoriasis.
