This January my son (2 years old) got a rash in the pelvic area that became infected, having a white top on each spot. He was prescribed mupirocin and he got well. The rash came back, also in his legs (like spreading) Everytime he has the rash (looks like pimples 5-6 at the time in the pelvic area and his penis very swallen and red) The rash came back for the 3rd time and the doctor said that was yeast, now he was prescribed nystatin, got better.

I am a 26 year old male that was recently diganosed with a male yeast infection. I received the yeast infection from my girlfriend. She told me several months back after we had sex she thought she might have a yeast infection. When she went to the doctor to check it out, she was told she indeed had a yeast infection and bacterial vaginosis or something that sounded like that. Some kind of bacteria infection in her vagina.
Now to my question.
Was it actually a fungal infection or a yeast? It is not too uncommon to get a fungal infection too depending on your circumstances. Is the fungal infection resolved? If not you may need a antifungal too if you can tolerate it. What are you allergic to? Did you or do you have a fever? Sometimes they treat with an IV antibiotic. I think it is an allergic reaction to the antibiotics not necessarily that you are immunocompromised. Did they give you Mupirocin for two weeks or one week?
Thank yuo very much,Qtnger chuck
So the story begins about two weeks ago, I got a yeast infection and took care of it. About 2 days after the treatment was over I began to notice chafing in my groin area.I have gained a few pounds so I thought to myself it was normal, just eat healthy and go for a jog. That same day I shaved. Following day I notice a few bumps and the chafing is getting worse, but once again I thought to myself maybe its just razor bumps.
I think I may have cut myself while shaving and now the cut is infected. I am not sure though. I am unable to pop the blister/sore. It is near my bikini line. It is about the size of a pea and is white and flat. It hurts when touched or rubbed against. I don't know what to do. I recently have had a yeast infection. I also have a new sex partner. I am hoping it isn't herpes and just a cut that got infected from shaving. I have had it for about two weeks now and it has not changed at all.
Thanks for your reply. I got in touch with my doctor (I live in Canada. Free heath care) She told me that the bumps were pretty normal in teens and that I could be having a yest infection, or like you said a staph infection. She gave me a anti fungal cream and ant biotic fro the yeast infection because she wasn't completely sure what it could be yet. She took a urine sample for my uti also. So, I'll be getting results soon, in a day or two.
So i went to the doctor again because the bumps came back on my vagina, and he stated that i have a common skin infection that is common amoung men and women. I am still worrying even though i got the cream. There are 6 bumps and one of them is bigger than the others and it has white puss inside. I was wondering if it is a common skin condition?
You can look these up there are a lot of them. It could be yeast as well. They should really do a vaginal culture on you. Does it hurt urinate also? If so get a urine culture done too. You may also just have pain from the tear. the area where the bleeding happened could have gotten infected possibly too. I would see a gynecologist. But, I would retest yourself for HIV in about 35-40 days after the exposure with the HIV 4th generation duo test to be final on it.
guy at the clinic looked at it, said i wasnt std related, and gave me yeast infection cream./.
Hi, it is possible that you might have a yeast infection. I have had it and at times there are no other symptoms other than the itching. If the yeast becomes worse you might get little red bumps on the glans and foreskin.
It is best to get it checked by a doctor as it may be due to other causes as well. If it is yeast than Monistat or Canesten might work to clear things up.
All the best.
On Sept 13th, I had sex with a lady using a condom but she performed some oral on me unprotected.
On Oct 7th, I had sex with another lady using condom and she masturbated me using her saliva as lube.
On Oct 11th, I noticed two small scabs on my foreskin. Scared, I went to a dermatologist who said they could be herpes but wasn't sure.
I went to a urologist and he suggested that it is a yeast infection. During these ten days it has become soft red rash and has spreaded a bit and does not pain. I am still worried as it has not gone even after nearly two weeks. Despite of some medication that doctor has given me. I am going to see him again today.
Topical antibiotics such as mupirocin or neomycin containing ointment are also useful. In case the symptoms persist then oral antibiotics may be needed. Please consult a dermatologist in that case. Also avoid scratching the area as then you spread the infection and scarring also occurs.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided.
