• Headache

  Systemic mycosis can cause chronic fatigue, pain in the muscles or joints, headaches, and mental fog. Typically, these types of infections only happen to people who already have a weakened immune system. [fibromyalgiatreating.com]

  Symptoms usually include headache, stiff neck and irritability. Eyes Almost any of the eye structures may be infected by mycoses. Candida and Cryptococcus are the most commonly infecting mycoses. [dermnetnz.org]

  Disseminated sporotrichosis exhibit symptoms depending on the body part involved such as joint pain caused by infection in the joint and difficulty in thinking, headache and seizures caused by infection in the central nervous system. [lecturio.com]

Epidemiology Sporotrichosis occurs worldwide. It is endemic in China. Epidemics have been reported in South Africa, Australia and Brazil. In Peru, incidence is 1case in 1000 people. The prognosis of the disease is very good. [lecturio.com]

Pathophysiology The common mode of transmission of sporotrichosis is through skin inoculation. The dimorphic organism is found in the soil and enters the skin via cuts, wounds, animal bites or scratches. [lecturio.com]

Because candidiasis can become invasive, patients suffering from HIV/AIDS, cancer, or other conditions that compromise the immune system may benefit from preventive treatment. [courses.lumenlearning.com]

Prevention and follow-up There is no vaccine for prevention of sporotrichosis. Sporotrichosis can be prevented with the use of gloves and long sleeves while doing outdoor activities such as gardening. [lecturio.com]
