Funiculitis

Funiculitis is a pathological condition that occurs as a result of inflammation and inflammation of the skin. It bears significant similarities to herpes zoster. The main distinguishing feature of funiculitis is the long-term existence of pustular lesions and their constant presence on the skin. Funiculitis is characterized by a cyclical course. In the area where papules and vesicles are located, the skin is drier, and there is a decrease in its local blood circulation. The main problem with funiculitis is not a deterioration in the patient’s general health (in the absence of an infectious disease), but rather skin damage.

The etiology of funiculitis is not completely known, but several types of the disease are distinguished: cutaneous funiculitis and funiculoseppum, or epithelial (morphological). With the first two types, pinkish-red roseolas appear on the skin, which spread to distant areas of the skin surface (inguinal-femoral area, sternum, lower back, sacral area), turning over time into small-diameter pustules. The third type of funiculitis occurs exclusively on the nail plate. Treatment of funiculitis should occur under the supervision of a doctor to prevent the development of complications. To effectively treat funiculitis, it is necessary to determine the root cause of its development. Thus, treatment of funuculitis caused by staphylococcus or streptococcus may require the use of antibiotics. Funicuit therapy is a comprehensive measure aimed at eliminating the accompanying symptoms of the disease. Examination of the patient before treatment includes a blood test and histological examination of the affected area.

Funiculitis is an inflammatory process that occurs at the junction of the skin and the surface of the eye. The causative agent of the disease is an infection - the herpes virus, less often fungal microorganisms. Infection with funiculitis occurs when using contact lenses or foreign headsets. Funiculitis manifests itself as redness, swelling, pain and irritation of the eye. Symptoms may progress and over time affect the mucous membrane of the eye, cornea and retina. Treatment of the disease consists of taking antibiotics, anti-inflammatory drugs and using special drops. If the disease is not treated or ignored, the consequences can be irreversible.
