A member asked:
Is it possible to get jock itch on your face following close sexual contact with an individual who has jock itch in their groin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: If your face was exposed to a skin fungal infection in a groin, you may be susceptible to getting a fungal infection on your face, particularly if you have any open or abraded areas from shaving, trauma, acne or other reasons. It can be dry, red, scaly or acne-like and is usually responsive to topical anti-fungals or oral physician prescribed medications.
