An 18 years old boy from a Pune city of Maharashtra was admitted to the hospital (name not known) after suffering from a persistent fungal illness for several days (figure 1). He showed the symptoms of an athlete’s foot fungal infection, which may appear white on lighter skin and cause peeling or cracking of the skin. A doctor typically diagnosed an infection by scraping off a person’s scaling skin and looking it under a microscope for signs of any fungus.
