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 f tn About a month ago I developed a rash on my penis, I was diagonosed with a yeast infection. I used nystston powder for a week and the rash went away, however I still have a clammy sensation and at times a dull pain in my penis...is this normal or should I be concerned?
Avatar f tn My boyfriend of 3 years and I took a break for about a week. In that week I had unprotected sex with somebody else. Now a week has passed & I'm back with my boyfriend. A day After I had sex with my boyfriend I started to get an itchy burning sensation. I've never had a yeast infection before so I don't know if the symptoms I'm having are that. We had sex on Sunday & immediately after we were done My vagina burned on the inside and Swelled.

Got scared went to the doc he said it was yeast infection well almost on my 4th week and it seems to have subsided atleast thats what im hoping for. Yesterday on the head of my penis their was this patch of skinlike thing and I was able to take it of.

554628 tn?1362777919 i know tmi sorry but i have NEVER had a yeast infection b4 so idk what this could be. i have a rash i know and it was like a white color is this a yeast infection and can it be treated with otc meds b4 my next ob doctors appt.
Avatar f tn Swelling and painful itching can be a sign of a yeast infection. Frequent urination with pain could be a bladder infection. The rash later that day could have been an allergic reaction caused by lubricants (even water based can give people an allergic reaction) or condoms (although it doesn't sound like you used one?). There are even odd cases of women being allergic to a man's sperm. If your partner has a sexual history or any known STDs or STD symptoms you should probably get checked.
Avatar f tn It was accompanied by a sore in the rash so that is what sparked the interest in HSV testing although I read that sores can be accompanied by a yeast infection sometimes. I did research and learned that yeast infection rashes and HSV rashes are very similar but yeast infections would be cleared up with the proper medication and did not have a harsh smell while HSV rash needs special medication and would smell if a discharge was present.
Avatar m tn I wrote on these forums yesterday regarding an STD scare, but at this point I'm going to say what I'm going through is just a coincidence yeast problem. In the past I had balanitis and pretty much this resembles everything I went through before. Do you think the events I went through triggered it?
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 m tn so I went to get a yeast infection drug with miconazole nitrate. I have to say...so far it works great and I am only in the second day. Rash is almost gone but the itching and stinging comes and goes...is that normal? Should I expect those symptoms to stay a little longer, or maybe the drug just provides temporary relief? Please help...
Avatar f tn Hello, I cannot confirm anything without examination but it can be contact dermatitis, sweat dermatitis, heat rash or fungal infection. Wear loose-fitting cotton clothing and use an antibacterial soap or mild soaplike dove. Avoid any kind of cosmetics. Topical calamine lotion is very helpful .Application of mild steroid cream like dermacort also helps. For the itching please take some over the counter antihistaminic like Benadryl or Claritin.
Avatar f tn lately when my boyfriend and i have sex he complains about me feeling rock hard inside. than when we are finished his penis gets red like a rash for a few minutes and goes away. im wondering if this could be a uti or what else it could be?
Avatar f tn My daughter has been admitted to the hospital. She has a bad yeast infection. Her MS is progessive. Her hand has bad pressure sores because of the extreme pressure in her left side. The wound care team has been called to help with her treatment. She has pressure a sore on her tail bone. The rash is around and through her groin area. Just would like so input about this problem. Les is very thin for a women that is 5'7". She is having alot of pain.
Avatar n tn The next day it went down but was very itchy and red. Now it looks nasty! the skin right before the tip has a nasty rash and is painful. the rash is kind of on the tip of my penis also. there is a white kind of slimey layer on some of the rash also. i have been struggling with jock itch for some time now. also my right big toenail is very yellow. i mention that because it is also a fungus. ive been very tired and irratable as of late also.
Avatar f tn I'm experiencing burning & extreme internal itching. It started 3 days ago. I've had a yeast infection once before in high school & it was AWFUL! I'm terrified of experiencing that again so I took the monistat 1 day last night and woke up this morning & it feels about the same. I really don't have the money to go to the doctor and I saw online that the 3 day & 7 day are better.
Avatar n tn * new doctor said this was Jock Itch or Fungal/Yeast Infection. Prescribed Antifungal cream (Lamisil and Oxistat), which I used. Itching/burning went away after few days. I still use Oxistat cream & anti-fungal powder now which I think is helping to remove the rash slowly. * 9 weeks after, blood/urine tested for common STDs, was NEGATIVE. (Incl: Chlamydia, Hepatitis B/C, Gonorrhea, Herpes I, II, HIV, Syphilis) * 13 weeks after was tested for Herpes I /II, was NEGATIVE.
Avatar f tn A sample of the vaginal discharge may be taken to confirm the specific cause of the infection. If a yeast infection is confirmed, an antifungal medication will be prescribed to you. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
Avatar m tn I saw my urologist today and he told me he thought it was a yeast infection (from the antibiotics) and prescribed me some anti-fungal / steroid cream. I've made an appt. to see a dermatologist on monday just to be sure. Essentially, I'm just wondering whether the symptoms sound like a yeast infection, or what the possibility is that it could be something else (like herpes? Could that manifest 6 1/2 months later? Would there be pain if it was herpes and not a yeast infection?).
Avatar n tn In men, prolonged antibiotic use, presence of diabetes or impaired immune systems increases the risk of a yeast infection. Signs and symptoms of a male yeast infection include a reddish rash, and itching or burning at the tip of the penis. Most male yeast infections are easily treated with an over-the-counter antifungal treatment, such as Monistat. If the rash persists, it would be best to have it evaluated further by your doctor.
Avatar n tn 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.
Avatar f tn My OBGYN gave me meds to clear up a yeast infection I have. I took the meds religiously. Now, I discovered a small rash at my libia minora (i think thats what its called) two days ago...what could this be?
Avatar f tn Along with doxycycline I was out on imiquimod but I stopped yesterday because I felt as tho it was the problem along with I felt like I am gettin a male yeast infection so now I started putting lotrimin on my penis head and under and on that rash but the rash just burns. Also I am circumcised and the guy I got that oral from had no lesions on his mouth. Here are my questions 1: does this sound like genital herpes?
Avatar n tn My daughter got a diaper rash last month when she was 10 months old - it looked really bad. I took her to doc and she said it's a yeast infection and prescribed a cream. I used it on her for almost 1 month. It went away, but now she's 11 months old and it's seems like the rash is creeping up every time she goes poopy - even if I change her 2 mintues later (right after she's done). What could it be?
Avatar f tn Hi After a female touched her vagina then touched my penis and have me a hand job I had a bit of redness and dry cracked lines on the tip of my penis. I went to the doctor and they said it seems like I have a yeast infection so they gave me canistan cream and I've been using this for weeks now and the symptoms are not going away. Does anyone know why? Is it true that some yeast infections may need antibiotics if the cream are not working? Would be grateful if someone could help me. Thanks!
