tinea  [ˋtɪnɪə]
癬

cruris [ˋkrʊrɪs]
腿的

inguinal [ˋɪŋɡwɪnəl]
鼠蹊部

Tinea Cruris (Jock Itch) commonly appears on the inner thighs and inguinal. It may cause red patches, small rashes, and a burning or itchy feeling. Because the fungus may spread to surrounding areas that look normal, always apply the cream beyond the edge of the rash to ensure full coverage.
股癬常出現在大腿內側和鼠蹊部，可能會引起紅色斑塊、小紅疹，並伴隨灼熱或搔癢感。因為黴菌可能已擴散到看似正常的周圍皮膚，塗抹藥膏時應超出紅疹邊緣，確保完整覆蓋。
