〔〕 Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is essential in preventing and treating fungal skin diseases (FSD). The use of Chinese herb extracts and Chinese polyherbal formulation treating FSD may effectively alleviate the clinical treatment difficulties caused by the scarcity of antifungal Western drugs and the widespread presence of drug-resistant strains. The present review aims to integrate the findings from clinical and mechanistic studies on the antibacterial activity of Chinese herb extracts and its polyherbal formulation as a treatment approach for FSD, with the ultimate goal of providing a theoretical reference for developing new antifungal TCM and innovative clinical prevention and treatment methods for FSD.
