Scabies is a skin infection caused by the itch mite. The female mite burrows into the skin -- between the fingers, in the wrist area, and in the armpit. Babies can get scabies on the palms of their hands and soles of their feet. Scabies cause intense itching, which can lead to the formation of sores, blisters, scabs, and the possibility of secondary bacterial infection.
The many dermatomycoses (skin infections caused by fungi or yeasts) include tinea capitis, tinea barbae, tinea cruris, tinea manus, tinea pedis and tinea unguium (onychomycosis). Candidal infections occur in moist areas, such as the vulva, mouth, penis, skinfolds and diaper area.
