Abstract

Dermatomycoses, or fungal infections of the skin, hair, and nails, affect nearly a billion people worldwide, especially in countries with a low sociodemographic index (SDI) and amongst vulnerable populations such
as young children. Rising global rates of dermatophytosis impose a considerable burden on dermatology and primary care facilities worldwide, particularly on the Indian subcontinent. These infections, often perceived
as minor, can severely impact quality of life, causing discomfort, social embarrassment, and contributing to poor sleep.
