A member asked:

I have a yeastnfecton on my belly button i went in the pool is the chlorine safe for it and anxiety making it hard to breath?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pool is fine: Keep your belly button dry after getting out of the pool and whenever there is a yeast infection. Have the infection treated. There are powders, dry sprays and oral meds that can be used. See a psychiatrist if the anxiety is chronic. If no panic is present or ocd , i usually use Buspirone if it is chronic worry. See a therapist as well to help you get better psychological control over your anxiet.
