The patient experiences physical, emotional and socio-economic embarrassment in society. Dadru (Tinea) is the type of Kustha (skin diseases) that comes under both due to its quick invading nature and discoloration of skin. As per modern perspective Dadru (Tinea) comes under tinea cruris the most common dermatological manifestation affecting up to 10-20 % of world population. In Ayurveda Samhitas any specific etiology of Dadru (Tinea) has not been explained, except the general etiology of Kustha (skin diseases). Tinea cruris is fungal infection and found more in Male then female. Severe itching and red patches are common dermatological manifestations present in all patients.
