Conclusion
Superficial fungal infections of the hands and feet are manageable conditions with a favorable prognosis when treated appropriately. Topical and oral antifungals continue to be the mainstay of therapy and often need to be used for 1 week to 4 months, depending upon the type and severity of fungal infection. It is important to counsel the patient regarding the potential for recurrence despite adequate adherence and symptom resolution. Prevention strategies should be encouraged in order to minimize the risk of future infections.
