Tinea Incognito: A Case Study

A 36-year-old man presented with a six-year history of asymptomatic, flat patches of alopecia on his legs and trunk, which expanded over time and appeared on his arms and chest. Despite various treatments, including oral, intramuscular therapy, and topical 0.1% triamcinolone acetonide cream, there was no clinical improvement. This case highlighted the unusual presentation of tinea incognito, a dermatophyte infection that can mimic other skin conditions.
