Identify skin conditions and treatment
Hi My mom has a skin condition on her foot, which is spreading day by day. I am not residing with her and a picture today of her foot. After seeing that picture I was worried and did some online search. Which lead me to think that it's psoriasis, but I am not sure. Please help me to identify the condition and options for best treatment. Please look at the picture and get back to me with solutions. Thank you.

Fungal infection.. Also called jock itch, when occurs in groin.. Usually fungal infection is common in moist areas of body like skin folds..It's mostly circular or round in appearance.. May be red or black in colour.. Treatment depending on the type and severity.. Avoid sharing clothes, towels and soap; sweating also increases it..As it has to be differentiated from eczema, bacterial and viral infection, doctor need to see to confirm the diagnosis..So, meet me in my clinic or do direct online consultation by sending photos for detailed information and medicine for treatment.
