Cause

Cause of red dragonfly

Causes:

Red scorpion was once thought to be caused by actinomycetes. Corynebacterium minutissimum has been isolated from the scales of red carp. Recently, it has been confirmed by electron microscopy that the coryneform bacterium is a pathogen of red peony. Bacillus, a diphtheria-like bacterium, positive for Gram stain, often parasitic on the nose, pharynx, eyes, external auditory canal and skin surface of normal people. When the part is warm and humid or skin damage, the bacteria invade the stratum corneum and cause infection.

Pathogenesis:

The disease is easy to relapse after being cured. Red mites can recur within 6 to 12 months and require a second treatment. Other bacterial infections or fungal infections caused by scratching are usually secondary to low body weight, or long-term use of immunosuppressive agents and fungal infections such as onychomycosis.

The new damage is smooth, the older damage is wrinkled or there are a lot of squama-like scales. It is common in the skin of the inguinal region, the axilla, the hip joint, the lower breast, the fourth to the fifth toe, etc., which are in contact with the thigh and the scrotum. Often there are no symptoms, but it is susceptible to frictional irritation in the groin, which can cause itching and mossy changes. If the infection affects the skin around the anus, it can cause anal itching.

There is also a generalized red sputum, the skin lesions are clear red-brown patches, widely distributed in the trunk and limbs. This type of red mites is more common in patients with diabetes and other debilitating diseases. Montes believes that diabetes may be a trigger for red snapping.

Examine

Laboratory examination: Scaling the smear on the lesion, and staining with Gram or adding 10% potassium hydroxide to the bacteria and hyphae. Colonies appeared after 18 to 36 hours of culture in a tissue culture medium containing 20% calf serum and 2% agar, and coral red fluorescence was observed under Wood's lamp.
