Tinea barbae is a superficial fungal infection of the skin, hair, and hair follicles caused by dermatophytes. Though dermatophyte infections are one of the most common skin infections in humans, tinea barbae is relatively rare. Lack of awareness about the disease in the medical community often leads to missed diagnosis and mismanagement. To avoid the morbidity and healthcare costs associated with this condition, it must be promptly diagnosed and treated. This activity reviews the etiology, clinical presentations, diagnosis, and treatment of tinea barbae and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in evaluating and treating patients with this condition.
