Experts sound the alarm over #drugresistant #fungal infection detected in US
Story by Matthew Dooley, December 4, 2023
"Experts are sounding the alarm about a highly contagious #fungaldisease that's becoming resistant to common drugs. They warn this could make illnesses like #thrush much harder to treat.
"Medical professionals have warned that the world is not prepared for the growing threat of fungal infections.
"These can range from common conditions like #ringworm and thrush to life-threatening bloodstream infections caused by #CandidaAlbicans and #CandidaAuris.
"David Denning, a professor at the University of Manchester, previously spoke to The Mirror about a drug-resistant form of #ringworm. He explained how this fungus can easily spread in schools and homes.
"He said: 'Skin fungal infections are transmitted from one person to another in schools, homes and with intimate contact. This new #TerbinafineResistant fungus is a new species called #TrichophytonIndotineae and [was] first identified in India.
"Experts believe the rise in resistant fungi is due to overuse of over-the-counter #antifungal creams, misuse of #TopicalSteroid creams, incorrect prescription of antifungal drugs, as well as patients not sticking to prescribed courses of antifungal medication."
Blasting Ringworm fits my current frustrated mood very well indeed.
The second wave of the Better To Reign In Hell Tour rolled through Chicago last weekend, bringing Venom, Inc., Satan, Ringworm, and 72 Legions to the Cobra Lounge.

"NYC reports treatment-resistant ringworm infections, first ever in the U.S.
A treatment-resistant, highly contagious form of the skin infection tinea, better known as ringworm, has been reported in the U.S. for the first time, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Thursday. The cases were identified in two patients in New York City.
Ringworm is a common, superficial infection of the skin, hair or nails that is very contagious. It is caused by fungi and is typically treated with antifungal medications, but over the past decade, a treatment-resistant strain has emerged in South Asia. The CDC refers to that increase as "an epidemic.""

Sometimes i accidentally read a #bjj thread on #ringworm on the internet & it's really depressing, lol. Lots of broscience & pseudoscience.
No tea tree, bleach, gasoline, probiotics, alcohol, sunlight, apple cider vinegar, kombucha, oregano, garlic, or aloe vera is going to resolve anything fungal, bacterial, or viral. Bleach and gas are caustic, do not use those on your skin! The rest are as good as vibes and prayer - won't hurt it, but certainly won't treat it.

At my very first #WrestlingMatch as my kid decided to try it halfway through his high school career. Don't understand the appeal, and there are a lot of schools here, so I'm unsure where to be so I dont miss his match. Also, nobody warned us in time about #Ringworm. Not a fan. #SorryNotSorry
