Hi i have a 6th month old and she have been diagnosed with thrush or yeast infection and it's also around her eyes!! so my question is how did it get?

In the air: The organism causing thrush is present in the environment. The child is going through a phase in her immune system, where she is less able to handle the organism. Almost all kids outgrow this phase.

A member asked:
Is it possible to get a yeast infection if you've had a vagina one, and may have touched your eyes without thinking to wash hands after applying medication? I can't decide if severe random allergies or eye infection. No puss. Just red and extremely itchy.
