Condyloma acuminatum (genital warts) are caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) infection of the epithelial cells. Pinhead papules to cauliflower-like groupings of filiform, skin-colored, pink or red lesions are observed. Candida albicans presents with multiple, discrete, flat pustules with slight scaling and surrounding edema. Epidermophyton floccosum is identified by erythematous plaques with scaling, papular lesions with sharp margins, occasionally clear centers, and pustules. Trichophyton rubrum shares the grouping with Epidermophyton floccosum; both produce a fungal infection of the groin, tinea cruris.
