Chesk with the Peds: You possibly would need a systemic anti-fungal antibiotic treatment. Check with your pediatrician or get a second opinion.

Talk with her Dr.: Your dr. May try another anti fungal med. Oral yeast is normal flora and it is held in check by other oral bacteria. Sometimes a fungal infection can be a sign of some other systemic problem. It is important to get to the cause.
