Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Chancroids are caused by the bacteria Haemophilus ducreyi and can result in the development of painful, eroded ulcers. These ulcers may spread to the lymph glands and cause tissue death. While chancroids are more common in developing countries, they have been seen in the United States. They cannot be treated with anti-fungal creams, as they are caused by bacteria.
