A member asked:
Spit test is positive for thrush i have white/yellowish tongue lesions inside lips, white patches on cheeks can the test work for a different infectio?

If your doc says: You have thrush please follow what he/she says. White patches in throat and on tongue are an indicator of thrush. If it doesn't clear you can get tested for other things. Probiotics can help. A nutritionist or natural doc can guide you.
