Can Ringworm Affect Your Armpit?
Ringworm is a very common skin issue, especially in warm climates. It may affect anyone, but those with compromised immune systems tend to be more prone to this infection. Symptoms tend to appear in different parts of the body, including your arms, legs, and torso (tinea corporis), scalp (tinea capitis), fingernails or toenails (tinea unguium), hands (tinea manuum), beard (tinea barbae), buttocks, inner thighs, or groin (tinea cruris), or feet (athlete’s foot). In addition, it may affect the armpit. [2]
