A member asked:

I have thrush after taking ampicillin for infection after surgical removal of a bladder tumor. is this important?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not usually: Thrush is a fungus colonization of the throat. It is caused by the antibiotics you are taking. It usually goes away when off antibitics or an antifungal rinse is taken.
