Service Providers for SSF from Back
SSF (Superficial Scraping for Fungi) from the back is a diagnostic test used to detect fungal infections on the skin of the back. The procedure involves collecting a sample by scraping the affected area of the skin, which is then sent to a laboratory for culture. The test helps identify common fungal infections, such as tinea corporis (ringworm), Candida infections, or other dermatophyte-related conditions. The culture allows the fungi to grow, and sensitivity testing may be done to determine the most appropriate antifungal treatment. Results typically take a few days to a week to process.
