Athlete's foot is the most common fungal disease, with possibly more than 50% of the population affected at some time. [2] [4] Tinea manuum accounts for less than 2% of all superficial fungal infections. [2] Tinea manuum is rare in both hands. [2] Scenarios with one foot and two hands, and one foot and one hand, have been described. [15]
But the recovery time can vary. Up to about 1/3 of people experience persisting symptoms after concussion (PHAC) or persistent post concussion symptoms (PPAC), defined as symptoms that last more than 4 weeks. [5] [6] [7] After an injury, concussion symptoms can begin immediately or be and delayed by 1-2 days at most. [8]
Tinea manuum is a fungal infection of the hand, mostly a type of dermatophytosis, often part of two feet-one hand syndrome. [2] [4] There is diffuse scaling on the palms or back of usually one hand and the palmer creases appear more prominent. [2]

[1] A concussion [2] can be caused by a direct blow to the head, or an indirect blow to the body that causes reactions in the brain. The result of a concussion is neurological impairment that may resolve spontaneously but may also have ...
Consequently, the name does not indicate the fungal type, for example, Tinea corporis (body) and Tinea manum (hand). Ringworm spreads readily by direct skin-to-skin contact, and by using a contaminated hairbrush or other source. Some studies have indicated that spread may be reduced by prophylaxis with anti-fungal agents applied to the skin. [3]
The concussion was so severe the athlete had to receive outside vestibular rehabilitation, which is designed to address things like persistent balance impairment and dizziness. Future ...
