Microsporum rusty is a fungal disease that affects the skin and hair of the scalp. It causes lichen planus, which appears as red or pinkish-red patches on the skin. These spots may be scaly, itchy, and may bleed.
Symptoms of Microsporum rusty begin with a mild burning or stabbing sensation on the skin, which may be accompanied by skin pain. Within a few days, red, pink, or red papules (like blisters) appear on the affected area. These blisters can ooze, burn, itch, and can also lead to dermatitis. The scalp hair may also be affected. The hair may appear red, itchy, and itchy. The lesions may also spread to other areas of the body, such as the arms, neck, or back.
