Avatar f tn At the end of February I took a 10 day round of antibiotics to treat strep throat. On the last day of treatment I discovered a largish discoloured, reddish spot on my shoulder. I left it alone, within a couple of days, my one spot had went to a few spots. I tried to get into my doctor and was unable to for one week. Instead I went to a walk-in, they gave me ketocozonole 2% and a steroid 1%. Two weeks later, the spots are starting to lose the redness, just look a little white and dry now.
Avatar f tn s what you took? Antibiotics would be a typical choice. You mention a yeast infection in another post, and yeast infections are common with antibiotics. Prednisone is used for internal swelling, allergic reactions, arthritis, those types of things. It heads off inflammation.
Avatar f tn Recently I came down with an upper respiratory infection and the doctor prescribed me a penicillin to clear it up. I told the doctor that I had a yeast infection the last time I took an antibiotic. I purchased a probiotic but didnt take it till after the 3rd day of medication and the damage was done already. I got a yeast infection and I have had one before due to antibiotics so I knew what it was.
Avatar f tn I've been taking Keflex and Prednisone for an ear infection that I've had for 2 months (this is my 3rd antibiotic in the last 2 months) and I have developed a very red rash starting right below the opening of my vagina, the skin beside it(kinda the start of my ver inner butt cheek), all the way up to my anus. The rash is itchy and sore (esp on my anus). It looks like a severe diaper rash. I've seen this type of rash on a friends child who had an external yeast infection.
Avatar f tn I just finished taking Prednisone 2 days ago. And now I have a yeast infection. Is it safe to take Fluconazole now?
Avatar f tn Because of this, I told the doctor I was having a possible reaction and he switched me to generic Zantac 150mg 2x per day - that was WORSE. My head was so tight, my anxiety heightened and I got a massive yeast infection after 4 days. So I went back on the generic prilosec.
4413820 tn?1354210055 I read somewhere that this could be related to a yeast infection that she may be getting.

Also, is the prednisone harmful for her in the long term.. Thanks for the help..
Avatar n tn It sounds like a yeast infection. Your dog will need antibiotics and a cleaning solution. It will NOT go away without the antibiotic, so please take him to the vet ASAP!
Avatar f tn In December I noticed one tiny tear on right side labia, it was quite sore not like pimple or sebaceous cyst I would be prone to and I also had yeast infection. Treated yeast infection. 2 weeks ago suddenly had swollen itchy left labia much higher up, white cottage cheese etc. treated again for yeast. This time noticed 3 tiny sore tear/cuts inside on the mucosal membrane, LEFT side. Got very worried.
Avatar f tn So the accidents in the house and straining to poop happened after the visit to the vet? Did you call your vet back and explain this? Not sure, but it could possibly be a side effect of the medicine for the thyroid medication and/or Prednisone. Google the medicine and see if those are listed as possible side effects. I know constipation can be one of them. Furthermore, Prednisone is notorious for side effects, included of which are gastointestinal problems and behavioral changes.
Avatar f tn Hey! I have this problem too. People told me that I had a yeast problem & I said "no way" because I thought yeast meant vaginal problems, which I do not have. I did not yeast can be thru-out your body. any way, for me, & only as a suggestion for you, I use SolarRay yeast-cleanse which you can buy at most vitamin shoppes but if you find it works for you let me know & I will look up where I buy mine for a 1/2 the price. Good Luck.
Avatar n tn When I returned to the states I developed a mild yeast infection after intercourse—this infection just keeps coming back. Now my boyfriend has prostatitis—likely linked to the yeast. He informed me that he ex-wife used to get yeast infections all the time. I never had a yeast problem before, despite ejaculatory sex and b.c. pills with my ex-fiancé. Could my new boyfriend have been carrying yeast from his ex and passing to me? Or is his prostatitis all my fault? P.S.

Avatar m tn Over a week ago I had a bad sinus infection I was given a Z Pak and Prednisone ( this might have nothing to do with this but i am wondering if I am having a reaction to either one) I have been off of both meds for about 3 days now after completing them and yesterday rash started on my neck and upper chest. What should I do?
Avatar f tn Hi everyone, I’ve been struggling for the last few years on and off with what I thought was a persistent yeast infection. However, I’ve been tested many times and it always came back negative. I felt as my general practitioner was very dismissive of me, so I decided to try a STD clinic earlier in the year. Despite not being sexually active, they did the standard STD test on me as well as testing for yeast and I came back negative for everything.
Avatar m tn there were some red areas developing on the shaft mostly on the band right below the head and at the bottom area of the banded section. thought it may be a yeast infection as i've been sweating a lot at work and had to work some very long days and i've been eating like **** for the last month, so I tried some monistat on it and waited till today.
Avatar f tn shortly after I noticed those, I went to the doctor because I thought I had a yeast infection. she did a test and yes it was a yeast infection, so I took a pill for that. I asked her about the bumps and she said it looked like razor irritation. I didn't think that's what it was, but they didn't itch that bad so I figured they would just go away. now for the past 2 weeks, I've had little hard skin colored bumps appear in various places on my body that are extremely itchy.
Avatar f tn I am now 36 weeks and have my 3rd yeast infection and have had one uti since I hit my 3rd trimester. I am so tired of getting infections. It just want to cry about it but I know it won't change anything.
1580703 tn?1651904887 The use of prednisone while having a lung infection is controversial. When hospitalized I refused the steroid and it created a hub-bub. I would not take prednisone with a lung infection unless it was absolutely positively necessary. As to what constitues "absolutely positively necessary" that is the million dollar question. In it's place I would take a beta agonist such as Foradil.
Avatar f tn I'm 25 weeks pregnant. I've had a couple bacterial infections and recently I've noticed some little white bumps in the vaginal area. I was wondering if this could be from the bacterial infection? Or if it could be from a yeast infection? I have an appointment tomorrow but it's really worrying me and I was just looking for some answers.
1168718 tn?1464983535 According to their website, the most common side effects include headache, infection, abdominal pain, back pain, accidental injury, and vaginitis (yeast infection). So my guess is... there's your culprit...if this all started at the same time you started the Premarin and nothing else would fit. I would call your doctor and see if there is another med your could get on. I'm not sure if it would help you or not..but I'm on Vivelle-Dot.
Avatar n tn I went to the doctor 12 days ago was told I had bronchitis and asthma Got z pack and prednisone and prednisone shot. Not any better - now slight cough, headache, congestion, dizzy and flushed and at night wake up all sweaty.
Avatar f tn Hi there. Well, could be a yeast infection/overgrowth, yes. If you have never been diagnosed for a yeast infection, I would go the first time to your doctor to confirm. They'll help you treat it then and give you ideas why it is happening related to your period. So, yes, I'd see your doctor at this point.
Avatar f tn Ugh. I used to have that issue with yeast when I had Cushings. There are hierarchy diagrams out there. I will see if I can link one in to the health pages sometime - but you can probably find one just by hunting.
Avatar f tn It sounds like classic Candida Yeast infection. Ask for the test, I bet it will show positive. It is a yeast that lives in the gut and can cause all kinds of problems, a lot of which you have. Google it, you will be amazed. To help until you see a doctor, take a good, pro-biotic supplement, this will help but friendly bacteria back in your gut and system.
