One family of infections
Three names, one kind of fungus
The three conditions on these labels are related. The CDC groups them under one heading, and the medical names on the packs follow the same pattern: tinea, then the part of the body.
Athlete's foot, jock itch, and most fungal nail infections are forms of ringworm.
Ringworm on feet (tinea pedis) is often referred to as athlete's foot. Ringworm on the groin (tinea cruris) is often called jock itch.
Questions
Three conditions, one family
Are athlete's foot, jock itch and ringworm the same thing?
They are 3 forms of one kind of skin infection. The CDC puts it this way: "Athlete's foot, jock itch, and most fungal nail infections are forms of ringworm." The place on the body gives each its name.
