&lt;h1&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;FAQs on Men&#39;s&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;Yeast Infection Symptoms and Treatment&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Yeast infections in men are not as prevalent as in their female counterparts. Nevertheless, according to a study published in the journal Clinical Microbiology Reviews, penile yeast infection can affect up to one in every 25 males and one in every 30 uncircumcised males and can occur at any age.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;So, what is a &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.hk/penile-yeast-infection&quot;&gt;penile yeast infection&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;? We have compiled a list of frequently asked questions for you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Can a man get a penile yeast infection?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Yes, men do get yeast infections. It is caused by the fungus called Candida that resides on the skin and in the body&#39;s internal organs, such as the mouth, gut, and vagina.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;The fungus, candida can however create infections, if it grows out of control or migrates deep into the body, such as the bloodstream or internal organs.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;The medical term for yeast infections that affect men is Candida balanitis.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.sg/balanitis&quot;&gt;Balanitis&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt; is inflammation or infection of the head of your penis (glans penis).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What causes a male yeast infection?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;A yeast infection is commonly associated with a woman&#39;s health medical condition. However, the infection can affect men too.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;The fungus candida typically causes a yeast infection. Candida is usually present in small amounts in the body. Therefore, a yeast infection can be caused by an overgrowth of candida.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Yeast infections in women are known as&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/womens-yeast-infection-symptoms-and-treatment&quot;&gt;Vaginal Candidiasis&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt; and affect the female vagina. In contrast, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.sg/penile-yeast-infection&quot;&gt;yeast infections in men&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt; are known as Candidal Balanitis or Balanitis Thrush and affect the penis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;A penile yeast infection can cause painful and uncomfortable symptoms if left untreated. In addition, if the infection spreads to your bloodstream, it can cause serious complications.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Yeast infections are more common in men who are not circumcised, have diabetes, or have a weakened immune system, such as HIV.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Is penile yeast infection an STD?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.ph/penile-yeast-infection&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Penile yeast infections&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;, unlike vaginal yeast infections, are usually acquired sexually &amp;mdash; when a man has sex with someone who has a yeast infection.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;However, because men can get the infection without having sex, candidal balanitis &lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;is not considered a sexually transmitted disease (STD)&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Aside from having intercourse with a partner who has a yeast infection, several other risk factors can increase your chances of obtaining a penile yeast infection, such as not routinely cleansing your genitals or bathing, not being circumcised, and having a compromised immune system as a result of certain drugs or medical problems.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Redness, itching, and soreness in the penis can be indicators of more serious illnesses, such as some sexually transmitted infections (STIs), therefore do not dismiss them.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;If you are unsure about your condition, please do not self-medicate. Instead, you can visit our sexual health doctor to get an examination, testing, and treatment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How can you get a penile yeast infection?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Having sex with someone who has a yeast infection can result in a &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://pulse-clinic.com.my/penile-yeast-infection&quot;&gt;penile yeast infection&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;. However, you can become infected without engaging in sexual behavior.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Other risk factors that can enhance your chances of having a penile yeast infection include:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Personal hygiene (not cleaning your genitals or bathing regularly)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Having a weakened immune function due to certain medications or health conditions&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Having diabetes or obesity&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.sg/phimosis&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;Having a tight foreskin or phimosis&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Long-term use of antibiotics&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Being uncircumcised&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Wearing wet clothing or tight-fitting underwear&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Candida, a fungus that causes penile infection thrives in warm, moist environments.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How do you know if you have a penile yeast infection?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Male yeast infections frequently do not develop symptoms right away. However, if the infection is left untreated, it can cause discomfort and pain.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Symptoms may include:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Redness and swelling at the top of the penis&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Sores, cracking, or bleeding on the foreskin&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Itching&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Burning sensation when you urinate&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;White, lumpy, foul-smelling discharge&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Discomfort during sex&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Small rash-like bumps that may have pus in them&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Patches of white, shiny skin at the top of the penis&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Yeast infections are easy to cure and very innocuous in most healthy people. Nonetheless, these symptoms might mimic other, more dangerous conditions. For example, if you have blisters in your throat, swollen tonsils, or a fever, your mouth pain could be caused by strep throat or another illness.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Similarly, genital itching and soreness may be symptoms of urinary tract infection or sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Anal irritation, particularly during intercourse or defecation, could be caused by hemorrhoids or fissures, among other things.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;If you are unsure about your condition, please do not self-medicate. Instead, you can visit our sexual health doctor for a probable examination, testing, and treatment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What can I do to reduce my risk of getting penile yeast infection?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;It is critical to practice excellent hygiene. So, what are some of the hygiene suggestions?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;During shower&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;If possible, fully retract the foreskin and wash under the foreskin and around the head of the penis daily with warm water. Soap is not recommended since it can irritate the skin. Use a neutral soap-free cleaner instead. After washing, carefully dry the penis head.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;During urination&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Retract the foreskin when passing urine to prevent urine from getting under the foreskin. Dry the end of the penis after passing urine before adjusting the foreskin.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;During Sex&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;After sexual intercourse and masturbation, wash and dry the penis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How do you treat a penile yeast infection?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;In most circumstances, antifungal ointments and lotions are sufficient to treat an infection. Some antifungal lotions are indicated for yeast infections.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What do you expect when you see a doctor?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Before starting antibiotics, the doctor may take several swabs to screen for the organism that is causing the infection. It may also be good to rule out sexually transmitted infections (STIs) at this point, as some STIs could display similar symptoms of penile yeast infection.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;The doctor may also want to check your blood sugar levels to discover if you have diabetes, which puts you at risk for balanitis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What is a recurring male yeast infection?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Yeast infections can reoccur even after they appear to be treated. If this occurs, your doctor will most likely advise you to start with daily treatments for a few weeks, followed by weekly treatments for a few months.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Recurrent yeast infections can be treated for up to months in some circumstances.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;According to 2016 research, if your infection does not react adequately to an antifungal ointment and you are uncircumcised, you may be advised to have a &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.sg/circumcision&quot;&gt;circumcision proecedure&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;. Though this surgery is typically performed on infants, it can be performed successfully on people of any age.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;If you wish to speak to our doctors about penile yeast infection issues, please contact our &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/booking&quot;&gt;sexual health clinics&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Can you get a yeast infection from having sex?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Yes, it is not uncommon that yeast infection can be transmitted to your partner through sex. Men can get infected with penile yeast infection if they engage in sexual intercourse with an infected female partner. Likewise, a female can get a &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.my/vaginal-yeast-infection&quot;&gt;vaginal yeast infection&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt; from an infected male during sexual intercourse.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;In general, it is also possible to contract yeast infection via oral sex when you encounter a person with a vaginal yeast infection or penile yeast infection. Sex toys can also transmit the infection.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;It is essential to consider taking a break from sexual activity with your sexual partner to prevent the transmission of this infection back and forth until you and your partner recover.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How is yeast infection diagnosed?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Your healthcare provider will ask about your symptoms and medical history. He or she will also give you a physical exam. He or she may scrape off a bit of skin or remove part of a nail and examine it to confirm the diagnosis. At PULSE Clinics we provide vaginal swabs to detect 7 types of Candida infections.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Why do I keep getting yeast infections (recurring yeast infections)?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Recurring &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.hk/vaginal-discharge&quot;&gt;vaginal yeast infection&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt; can occur if the conditions of your body are favorable for yeast to overgrow. A lack of regular hygiene practices can also lead to recurring yeast infections. The risk of having a recurring yeast infection is higher when you have a weakened immune system, some of the factors of a weakened immune system can be your age, use of certain medication, or have certain health or medical conditions.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How do you get rid of a yeast infection?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;After understanding your medical history, our doctor will perform an examination or test. A vaginal swab will be performed to determine the type of fungus causing the yeast infection. This is important to help your doctor to better prescribe effective treatment, especially if you have a recurrent yeast infection.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;The treatment for yeast infection depends on the severity and frequency of the infection. If your infection is infrequent and has mild to moderate symptoms, your doctor may prescribe you antifungal medication in the form of tablets, suppositories, creams, or ointments.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Yeast infections can be easily treated with ointments or other anti-yeast (antifungal) creams.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Yeast infections of&amp;nbsp;the vagina or penis can be treated with creams or medicated suppositories. Sometimes an oral anti-yeast medicine is used.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Yeast infection in the mouth (thrush) may be treated with a medicated mouthwash. Or it may be treated with lozenges that dissolve in the mouth.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;If you have a severe infection and a weak immune system, you may need to take oral anti-yeast medicine.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Oesophagal yeast infections are usually treated with oral or intravenous anti-yeast medicines.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Yeast infections of the nails are treated with oral anti-yeast medicine.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Yeast infections in the skin folds can be treated with anti-yeast powders.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
