A member asked:
May i have your advice on treating candida in esophagus.(upper digestive tract)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See a doc: First, I would make sure it's candida not something else. Its also important to explore why you are having candida. I would see a physician (PMD, ENT, GI or ID). There are prescription treatment options-antifungals available. Good luck.
