In 46.5% of subjects, the coexistence of tinea corporis and tinea cruris was noted, followed by tinea cruris (25.2%) and tinea corporis (13.1%). The majority of patients reported itch in the last 3\u00a0days (99%) and complained of itch limited to skin lesions (89.9%).

Severe and very severe itch was reported by 74.7% of patients. Itch was an isolated sensation in 34.3% of subjects, while 46.9% reported associated burning sensation. Itch was frequently exacerbated by sweating, hot temperature and wearing tight clothes. Difficulties in falling asleep and sleep awakenings were reported by 34.3% and 54.6% of subjects, respectively. Itch negatively influenced the well\u2010being of patients and its intensity correlated with QoL impairment.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Itch is an important symptom in superficial dermatophytoses and is associated with negative impact on sleep and carries a significant psychosocial burden.
