Common Questions and Answers about Tongue yeast treatments

tongue

Avatar m tn All my test were negative for stds and my treatments were precautionary treatments. I am still having sores coming and going and appearing in different places on my tongue. I went to see another doc and he thinks I have Geographic tongue and says it is a harmless condition. I returned to my primary care doc and he disagreed and he thinks I have a yeast infection and has set me up for ENT doc to do a biopsy of these lesions and he also did a swab to be tested.
Avatar f tn I have been battling bacterial vaginosis and yeast infections on and off for many years. Several years ago my husband developed an irritation on his lips that causes them to be painful, hard to open his mouth wide, feel as if they are sweating and a bit numb of sorts. A steroid creme helps to calm them down a bit. About a month ago, I developed the same condition on my lips. I wasn't experiencing a full blown yeast infection at the time, but developed one about 5 days ago.
Avatar n tn White coating or spots on the tongue usually are not due to yeast. Anyway, yeast infections can occur in immunologically healthy persons. I had it myself once. End of discussion.
237053 tn?1258828426 I've been dealing with a big yeast infection and my tongue gets that way sometimes too. I think Wonko once mentioned something I've also seen written elsewhere too, which is to swish around but DO NOT SWALLOW water with hydrogen peroxide in it. I forget the proportions. You can google it. *I think I've read that hydrogen peroxide is poisonous if you swallow it.* But it blasts the little yeast bugs to bits, so I've read. (I stick to Listerine cause I'm a chicken.
Avatar f tn I would recommend that you google candida, it is basically an overgrowth of yeast. A "yeast infection" is typically experienced by women in their vagina, however yeast can also be present and cause problems all over the body (male or female) and this is more typically called candida. It can and does cause fatigue and very pronounced symptoms. Many of the symptoms are the same as many of the CFS/Fibro symptoms. It is definitely worth looking into.
Avatar n tn Im pretty sure I have Candida due to the coated tongue, eczema (I havent had ezcema before), spit test, yeast in blood sample etc, but the hiv/aids?????
Avatar f tn This sounds like thrush, a yeast infection characterized by a white tongue. It can be treated with prescription medications from a doctor. Also, theoretically, taking L. Acidophilus supplements or eating yogurt containing L. Acidophilus can help prevent thrush and chronic yeast infections. Eating lots of sugary things can exacerbate the condition.
Avatar f tn Ok questions>>>I was recently (like in october) diagnosed with chlamydia...i have only had 2 sex partners..and my partner did get treated as well as me...now you know they say that antibiotics cause yeast infections...well i was wondering if that and of course being a 'pre-diabetic' which are two "risks" for recurring yeast has anything to do with my concern...
Avatar m tn These symptoms are quite common after antibiotic therapy.Do take some Bcomplex vitamins to recover the flora.
Avatar m tn I recommend putting the Biotene in a little finger pump spray bottle (from the cosmetics section) and during the night spraying it in your mouth when you briefly wake up. This will do wonders for your cracked tongue. 3-buy a tongue scraper and scrape the white coating off as many times a day as you feel like it, BUT DO NOT SCRAPE too more than three times a day while you're getting used to the scraper. 4-Eat lots of yogurt with live cultures. I prefer Greek yogurt.
Avatar m tn About 6 months ago, I went to a doctor regarding 2 irritating, small, thin white patches on the sides of my tongue (where my teeth touch my tongue) near the back of my mouth. At this time, I asked the doctor to test me for all STDs & Diabetes - all tests came back negative. I also had a CBC done, and there was nothing out of the ordinary. I told the doc that I thought it was an early thrush infection. He disregarded it.
Avatar m tn Brush the tongue with this. Avoid eating and drinking sugar as it feeds yeast. Drink mint tea or other tea without sweetener. Neem toothpaste may help as well. Take a probiotic.
Avatar m tn Is her tongue white? Thrush doesn't usually manifest as a sore on the outside of the lips, as candida requires a moist environment to survive. Just wondering if this has been diagnosed and if the other symptoms of thrush are there because if it's just this sore again are you sure it's yeast?
Avatar n tn With yeast it would be stark white colored and if you scrape it off with a tongue scraper or toothbrush with the tongue cleaner on the back side it would be red and may bleed. I have a coated tongue for a couple of weeks too but mine is not yeast. Try gargling with salt water several times a day and see if it helps. Also difulcan if you have yeast. I would see a doctor about the white 1 cm thing to make sure it isn't something serious. They can then tell you if you have yeast.
237053 tn?1258828426 my lyme doctor told me that is one of the signs of lyme, swollen tongue, with the abx treatment mine has went down a lot, talk to your llmd about it.
1763947 tn?1334055319 I have had a year of cyclical break outs on my tongue of very painful flesh colored bumps on both sides of my tongue and my LLMD thinks it is yeast so I have been taking diflucan for 6 weeks and the bumps went and way and have not come back....until tonight. One has popped up and usually more follow the next day or two. Has anyone had anything like this or can someone make a suggestion of another pill for yeast that would cure this for me?
Avatar m tn I have a white / yellowish growth on my tongue that when cleaned using a tongue scraper comes off in a pasty substance. I previously had a yeast infection caused by antibiotics. It lasted several years and affected my tongue and gut health causing growth on my tongue and diarrhea if I ate any breads or sugar. After going through a long course of anti fungal treatment my gut health appears to have fully rebounded but my tongue still has this growth occurring.
Avatar n tn go to the health food store. They sell as a supplement for dogs a powder that you put on their food, that is yeast flakes, garlic, and vitamin b12. I mix my own, have 4 dogs and a cat, and am flea free. All natural, and it works. My pets are on it year round.
Avatar n tn could be thrush, which is very common. Thrush is basically yeast overgrowth, and people get it from many things including antibiotics, birth control pills, foods, etc... Yeast thrives on sugar, so try "laying low" on the sweets for now. You should definitely have a doctor check it out. If it is thrush, your doctor will give you an anti-fungal to take for a few days, and voila! A magic trick! Turning a white tongue pink again!
Avatar m tn Whitish/yellow discolouration of the tongue is frequently due to a yeast infection. The small patches may disappear and reappear in a short period of time (hours or days), and change in shape or size. While it is not common for the condition to cause pain, it may cause a burning or stinging sensation, especially after contact with certain foods.
Avatar n tn What would cause a white coating on a human tongue accompanied by a brownish spot in the back center of the tongue with several "bumps" toward the back of the tongue. Teeth were cleaned at a dentists office March 20,2008. None of this was present at the time. A crown has been temporarily glued on over a cavity.

Avatar m tn I now notice I have a white tongue and keep getting yeast on my uncut penis. I read that yeast infections is a symptom of hiv. Would it be a smptom this soon or is it something that comes on in the later years. Worried sick.
Avatar n tn I'm not aware of yeast treatments being weaker outside of the US. If a full week after you've stopped treatment for the yeast infection you aren't back to normal genitally - return to be seen and evaluated again. Are you currently using a topical antifungal on the external genitals? As for your lip issues, it really doesn't sound like oral herpes. It could be a fungal issue or it could be a bacterial infection too.
Avatar n tn There is no corrosive leakage. I also doubt that it is a yeast infection. It might be that you are irritating your tongue from the broken filling. The sooner you can get the toth fixed the less expensive it will be in the long run and at the same time you should have your tongue checked out.
Avatar m tn Hairy tongue is not thrush and thrush is not HIV specific.
Avatar m tn is it possible to get a yeast infection the next day after possible infextion.
Avatar f tn Hello - I am 59 and have atrophic vaginitis. There is an area in the (introitus?) that has almost no skin covering due to the thinning tissue. It burns terribly all the time. I have had numerous vaginal infections over the past few months including gardnerella, a yeast inf., & 2 cultures showed large amounts of enterococcus faecalis & klebsiella.
