book describes Fungal Acne, Diagnosis and Treatment and Related Diseases</p><p>Fungal acne (termed medically as Pityrosporum folliculitis or Malassezia folliculitis) appears similar to hormonal acne or bacterial acne but is actually quite different.</p><p>In fact, it is not even really acne at all.</p><p>It is one of many types of folliculitis, a skin disorder that produces an infection in the hair follicle.</p><p>The fungus (Malassezia) nourishes on moisture on the skin either from the sweat glands on the skin or any other moisture applied to the skin.</p><p>These fungi produce an infection of the hair follicles (folliculitis) with pustules that bears a resemblance to traditional acne with acne-like red bumps and occasional whiteheads.</p><p>Contrary to the appearance of real acne in which the patient may see many forms of different acne lesions together (blackheads, some papules, some cysts), in fungal acne, there is a uniform appearance to the bumps and they are often itchy.</p><p>Cause</p><p>Malassezia furfur is a unicellular organism (fungus) with a diameter of 2.0-6.5 micrometers that produces Pityrosporum folliculitis or fungal acne.</p><p>Since fungi thrive in warm, humid places, fungal acne is more frequent in these types of climates and seasons and can be caused by sweating.</p><p>Fungi (Yeast) like warm, humid environments such as the gym and tight clothes so a person working out at a gym wearing tight clothes is more prone to fungal acne.</p><p>Prolonged usage of topical antibiotics such as clindamycin or oral antibiotics such as doxycycline and minocycline can worsen the symptoms of fungal acne.</p><p>By destroying off bacteria (both harmful and good), the antibiotics permit the fungi on the skin to proliferate.</p><p>Oral or tropical corticosteroid is another possible cause of fungal acne by suppressing immunity.</p><p>Symptoms</p><p>Fungal acne often appears on the arms, chest, and back while bacterial acne is most frequent on the face.</p><p>Fungal acne often produces itchiness while bacterial acne rarely does.</p><p>Fungal acne often emerges in clusters of small whiteheads while bacterial acne is less clustered and more scattered.</p><p>Pus-filled bumps produced by fungal acne are likely to be nearly all the same size while bacterial acne can produce pimples of differing sizes</p><p>Diagnosis</p><p>Fungal acne is resistant to anti-acne treatment such as antibiotics.</p><p>A simple painless skin scraping or a skin biopsy can be obtained and examined under a microscope to search for any fungus likely to cause fungal acne.</p><p>Treatment</p><p>Fungal acne can be stubborn and difficult to treat if the patient does not use the right fungal acne products.</p><p>Both topical and oral antifungals are successful agents in the treatment of Pityrosporum folliculitis.</p><p>Oral antifungals are every effective in dramatic, instant resolution of the rashes and are the most successful treatment.</p><p>The best fungal acne treatment shampoos contain ketoconazole 2 (the anti-dandruff shampoo, Nizoral).</p><p>To remove fungal acne quickly, there is also a need to unclog the skin pores of the hair follicle and fight both fungi and any harmful skin bacteria.</p><p>To attack the fungal acne (and any other acne) the doctor may consider adding a nighttime acne treatment cream with salicylic acid (BHA) or benzoyl peroxide.</p><p>Other ways the patient can do to get rid of fungal acne are:<br />Keeping the skin clean and dry<br />Showering straight after exercising<br />Wearing loose-fitting, breathable clothes<br />Using cotton surgical masks during Covid19</p><p>TABLE OF CONTENT<br />Introduction<br />Chapter 1 Fungal Acne<br />Chapter 2 Causes<br />Chapter 3 Symptoms<br />Chapter 4 Diagnosis<br
