When the cows come home: occupational tinea barbae in a cattle farmer

We recently treated a man with an unusual facial infection who had been admitted under the maxillofacial team. He was 29 years old, otherwise healthy, and presented with pyrexia and a severe, spreading, facial folliculitis, which had worsened over two weeks. He had initially been treated for suspected folliculitis with amoxicillin orally, but to no effect.
