yeast-infection

Avatar m tn Hello, You are right in thinking that it can be a male yeast infection. Men yeast infection can develop due to the overgrowth of Candida albicans. It can be transmitted through intercourse but may develop due in diabetics, weakened immunity and when taking a course of antibiotics also. Some of the symptoms of this condition are irritation and soreness in the head of the male genital, white curdy discharge and redness in the head of the penis.
Avatar m tn I am a 20 year old male. I got diagnosed with a yeast infection in February of last year, which affected both my testicles and penis. I was prescribed 2% Ketoconazole cream by the dermatologist and I applied the cream for 8-10 weeks. When I stopped applying the cream, I had no symptoms whatsoever for 6 months (it was beautiful, I was finally normal!). It might be important to note that these 6 months were Spring through Fall, and the weather was relatively warm if not hot.
Avatar m tn A male yeast infection typically happens under the foreskin. (It is possible to get yeast infections in fat rolls.) If you've seen a doctor they should have noticed it..
Avatar m tn Now having tender, swollen groin lymph nodes and vaginal yeast infection. Is transmission possible? Would it be too soon to experience these symptoms?
Avatar n tn I have candida in the mouth and the groin that has been comfirmed. I have a irritated penis head thsg they say looks normal but it has also a burning sensation. A long with this i have an irritated urehtra burning. The clinic took a swab and said nothing is detected on it. Could the irritation of the penis head cause urethral symtoms? I am on longbterm doxycycline for an ebedded bladder infection and have neevr had this symptoms before.
Avatar m tn Your itchiness in the genital area is highly likely to be caused by a fungal problem called Thrush. Your groin joint pain and back pain may be due to arthritis or from urinary infections or bowel problems. You can get itchiness and soreness in the groin area in the folds of skin if you are overweight.
Avatar f tn I just found out I have a bad yeast infection and bacterial infection (both not STDs). Could he have gotten a yeast infection on his penis from unprotected sex with me? Nothing else is affected (nothing on the tip or scrotum). It hurts when we have sex, so we have stopped for a while now (with a bit of slipping up but nothing long lasting or rough). It still hasn't healed but it doesn't look like there are any bumps except it looks like 1 or 2 ingrown hairs, maybe.
Avatar n tn I have this problem with lots of little red bumps around the head of my penis and I dont know what it is some say it is a male yeast infection but I cant seem to get ride of these little bumps and I dont want to pass it to my girl friend could you please help me
Avatar m tn yeast infections can cause a lot of symptoms like this. have you ever been tested for herpes before this?
Avatar f tn Thank you so much for the info Redilma! He did wear a condom during sex btw but I have another question. Since I don't have any symptoms at all, when I use the creams and the tablets, how will I know I treated the yeast infection and it actually went away. To be honest I don't even know if I have a yeast infection. It has been two weeks since we had sex. I feel perfect and everything looks fine too. Is it possible to have a vaginal yeast infection and not have any symptoms?
Avatar f tn can a yeast infection cause a rash on bum? Does a colonoscopy make you more vunerable to yeast infections? or gastrointestinal problems?
Avatar n tn what is this,red bumps in urethria opening and itching in groin area .also some aching in urethria after sex for few days it subsides?
Avatar m tn i was given anti bacterial cream to appply on my penis twice a day....is a fungal infection the same thing as a yeast infection? should i move on to another method to get rid of my infection?...the cream isnt working efficiently enough...its taking too long....
Avatar n tn I am not sure if this is some kind PROSTATE INFECTION or some kind of YEAST INFECTION. Either way it is annoying and I just want it to go away. When my penis feels this way it appears to be smaller then usual and the head appears to be blotchy white (almost like loss of pigmant). # # I HAVE ONLY HAD SEX WITH ONE PERSON (MY WIFE) IN MY LIFE TIME, 30 YEARS. I HAVE MASTURBATED IN A PEEP SHOW BOTH A FEW TIMES AND HAD A HAND JOB FROM A MASSAGE PARLOR, ALL PRIOR TO THIS HAPPENING.
Avatar m tn I was diagnosed with a male yeast infection which I got from my ex who was also diagnosed with the same. The Doctor prescribed Nystatin which I applied 3 times a day for 10 days. After which the infection symptoms reappeared after masturbation. The Doctor said it is tough to get rid of especially in the summer with the heat and humidity. So he prescribed what he called a stronger topical cream ketoconazole; which I applied for 14 days once a day.
Avatar m tn I am dealing and have been dealing with some thing similar for years now. What is the possibility of trichomoniasis being the problem? The reason I ask this question is because that is exactly what has happened for many years with my previous partner. Almost every time unprotected, she would get one and avoid intercourse while taking regular yeast infection medicine to relieve the problem.
Avatar n tn At the end of september this year the yeast infection came back and again went away on it´s own in a week. When it was dissappearing I had mild pain and pressure in my lower abdomen, groin and scrotum. My regular doc. said that I probably had an infected and/or enlarged prostate and prescribed antibiotics. These antibiotics did not work very well so he prescribed another course with stronger antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs as well. That course ended 5 weeks ago.
Avatar n tn Said she went to the doctor on October 10th for what she thought was a yeast infection and it turned out to be an STD. Said she had never had a yeast infection before in her life. She's 28.... I asked her what the name of the STD was and she sad she didn't know and would have to get back with her doctor to get the name of it.
Avatar n tn Jock itch would not cause discharge. But male yeast infection is very rare and wouldn't go down your legs. I would keep the area dry and use jock itch cream twice a day. This could be a fungal infection. Do not dry that area after you dry your feet. The skin in that area is very sensitive and takes awhile to get back to normal.
Avatar m tn and now i realize there is an red colour on the penis glands...is it male yeast infection?or it might be something else?
