Question 1

Exam please: You may have an infection which should be treated. A proper diagnosis can only be made with a more complete medical history and an exam. The examining physician may than order routine lab tests and check a culture from your vaginal region under a microscope. Please go to a medical clinic as soon as possible to be examined. I wish you well with your health!

Question 2

The alcohol won't: cure the yeast infection.

Question 3

Question 4

when insterting yeast infection cream, do i pull both the applicator, and the other stick back out, or does it stay and dislove? my first yeast infection, and directions weren't clear. i need to know before i hurt myself, if i pull both the applicator and

Accepted Answer

To : To answer your question you need to hold the applicator in your hand and gently insert the applicator into your vagina as far as it will go without causing any discomfort. Then push the inside piece of the applicator in (the stick) while holding the applicator in place. After you do this the stick will be completely inside the applicator and both will be in your vagina.  After this the cream will have been inserted and you can pull the whole applicator out. Don't worry it's fairly simple after you get the hang of it; also I have never heard of the applicator getting stuck. If you still need help your local pharmacist should be able to give you a demonstration.
Good luck!

For specific advice see a doctor licensed in your area and an assessment/examination may be needed to exclude other causes for clitoral pain as may not be yeast.

Referred pain: Most likely from referred pain from the pelvis. I would recommend a complete evaluation and treatment as soon as possible. Good luck.

Question 8

i went to the doctor and have a yeast infection in my groin and my testicals hurt  is that normal ?

Accepted Answer

Testicular pain: Is probably not related to your yeast infection.  It might be another infection in the testicle or even a torsion, which is an emergency because you can lose your testicle.  Consult with your doctor again.

Question 9

does using baby wipes cause yeast infection?

Accepted Answer

Not directly: Yeast from the stool will readily move into and establish an infection on irritated skin. If the preservatives or chemicals in the wipe aggravate an existing irritated area, it might allow yeast to take hold. Home made wipes using baby oil and paper towels can avoid this when used on irritated skin.
