Actinomycetoma is a term for a chronic subcutaneous infection caused by fungi or Actinomyces that affect the skin and connective tissue. Once pathological analysis and/or culturing is performed and the causal organism is identified, it is more appropriate to use the following terms: Actinomycosis for the bacterial form.
Actinomycosis is an infection primarily caused by the bacterium Actinomyces israelii. Infection most often occurs in the face and neck region and is characterized by the presence of a slowly enlarging, hard, red lump.
