Intertrigo
An intertrigo is an
inflammation (
rash) of the body folds (adjacent areas of
skin). An intertrigo sometimes refers to a
bacterial,
fungal, or
viral infection that has developed at the site of broken skin due to such inflammation. An intertrigo usually develops from the chafing of warm, moist skin in the areas of the inner
thighs and
genitalia, the
armpits, under the
breasts, the underside of the
belly, behind the
ears, and the web spaces between the
toes and
fingers. An intertrigo usually appears red and raw-looking, and may also itch, ooze, and be sore. Intertrigos occur more often among
overweight individuals, those with
diabetes, those restricted to bed rest or
diaper use, and those who use medical devices, like artificial limbs, that trap moisture against the skin. Also, there are several skin diseases that can cause an intertrigo to develop, such as
dermatitis or
inverse psoriasis.

Intertrigo is de verzamelnaam voor een rode, doorgaans pijnlijke
huiduitslag op die plaatsen waar
huid tegen huid aanligt. Voorbestemt hiervoor zijn de

Obesitas,
zweten en een aantal aandoeningen werken intertrigo in de hand. Het is een gevolg van de combinatie Vocht - Warmte - Huidfrictie. De huid wordt geïrriteerd, rood en pijnlijk. Bij baby's wordt intertrigo meer waargenomen en in de volksmond luiereczeem genoemd.
