Explanation by: Admin

Ringworm is a fungal infection caused by dermatophytes, which affect the skin, scalp, or nails. Despite its name, it is not caused by worms but by fungi.

  • Elephantiasis is caused by a parasitic worm (Wuchereria bancrofti) and is not a fungal disease.
  • Leucoderma (Vitiligo) is a skin disorder characterized by loss of pigmentation and is not caused by fungi.
