How to treat congenital tinea manuum/pedis

The treatment of congenital tinea manuum and tinea pedis mainly relies on antifungal medications, including both topical and oral formulations. Topical agents such as antifungal creams containing clotrimazole, miconazole, and econazole can be applied directly to the affected areas, effectively inhibiting fungal growth. Oral medications, such as itraconazole and terbinafine, can thoroughly eliminate fungi within the body and prevent recurrence. During treatment, patients should also maintain cleanliness and dryness of the affected areas and avoid humid environments, which helps reduce fungal proliferation. Personal items such as towels and slippers should be used exclusively to prevent cross-infection. Regarding diet, it is recommended to maintain balanced nutrition and consume adequate amounts of nutrients such as vitamins B and C to enhance immune function and promote recovery.
