Vibhor Sharma


Fungal infection or mycosis is a skin condition caused by fungus. Anyone can have a fungus infection and it can occur in any area of the body. A vaginal yeast infection, athlete’s foot, and thrush on new-borns are some examples of fungal infections.

Fungi are microorganisms that have a material called chitin in their cell walls. Some fungi are harmless whereas some can be highly dangerous and can cause life-threatening illnesses.
