Skin conditions are a common problem addressed by medical providers. Up to 25% of individuals in the United States will seek attention for these conditions each year. The same problem occurs in the athletic training room, where athletes with infectious skin conditions can be seen. Most conditions are simple and can be treated without concern for spread to susceptible athletes. However, others can be quite serious and spread rapidly through a team and opponents during competition. Knowledge of the different types of skin infections is necessary to help treat these athletes and prevent spread to others. With proper diagnosis and treatment, certified athletic trainers can keep the athlete off the field of play for a minimum period and prevent transmission.
皮肤问题是医疗服务提供者经常处理的一个问题。在美国,高达 25%的人每年都会因这些问题寻求医疗关注。同样的问题也会出现在运动训练室,那里可以看到患有传染性皮肤疾病的运动员。大多数情况下,这些问题都比较简单,无需担心会传播给易感运动员,通过简单的治疗即可解决。然而,有些皮肤问题则较为严重,并且在比赛中会迅速在团队和对手之间传播。了解不同类型的皮肤感染有助于我们治疗这些运动员,并防止疾病传播给其他人。通过正确的诊断和治疗,认证的运动训练师可以让运动员尽快离开比赛场地,防止疾病传播。
