What are the symptoms of tinea?

Gray hair
Abnormal hair loss
Itching, scales, and sometimes painful circular lesions
Excessive hair growth

The correct answer is: Itching, scales, and sometimes painful circular lesions

Tinea, also known as ringworm, is a fungal infection that commonly affects the skin, hair, and nails. The symptoms of tinea typically include itching, scales, and sometimes painful circular lesions on the affected area. This is why option C is the correct answer. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the symptoms of tinea. Gray hair or excessive hair growth are not typically associated with tinea, and while hair loss can occur as a result of the infection, it is not considered a defining symptom. It is important to note that the specific symptoms of tinea may vary depending on the area of the body that is affected. Therefore, it is important to consult a healthcare professional if you suspect you may have tinea.
