Penile infection: Yeast infection is not due to the infected sperm .It is rather due to semen contamination of external yeast infection in the surface of the penis.Yeast infection of penis head of foreskin will make the area red and raw. Therefore you need to be treated with proper medication yourself and your partner.

Yes and no: The yeast infection can cause penile irritation, but it is not in the sperm -- it's much further downstream.
