4 Home Remedies To Treat Yeast Infections For Men
Yeast infections can affect men as well. Although yeast infections are more common in women, men can also be infected. The fungus that causes yeast infections is normally present on skin, especially moist skin. When some contributing factor — such as having sex with a partner who has a vaginal yeast infection — causes an overgrowth of candida, infection can result. Yeast infections are more common in uncircumcised men.
Signs and symptoms may include:
-
Swelling and Irritation
-
small papules or white patches
-
Itching and Soreness
-
Moist skin on the penis
-
Thick white discharge collected in skin folds
-
Redness
-
Burning sensation on the penis
-
White skin on the penis
-
Trouble pulling back your foreskin
You may be more likely to develop a yeast infection if you:
-
Aren't circumcised
-
Use antibiotics for prolonged periods
-
Have diabetes
-
Have an impaired immune system, such as with HIV
-
Are overweight
-
Practice poor hygiene
When thrush occurs in males, it can affect the head of the penis and the foreskin. It can lead to inflammation of the head of the penis, known as balanitis.
Here are 4 home remedies to treat yeast infections in men.
Based on your symptoms, your doctor can prescribe you anti-fungal medications, steroid creams and even oral medication. If your infection persists, make sure you check with your doctor. Symptoms of a yeast infection can be similar to an STI, so make sure you don’t go about self diagnosing your symptoms at home. If you keep having yeast infections and aren’t circumcised, your doctor may suggest circumcision, especially if your foreskin is very tight.
Things you can do at home:
You can help clear up your infection by:
-
Avoiding soaps- The skin of your intimates is extremely sensitive and is home to a varied number of good bacteria that help in protecting your intimate skin as well keep you safe from infection causing bacteria. Using an intimate wash for men which is made keeping in mind the delicate skin of your privates and the natural pH of the intimate skin will be very beneficial for you.
-

-
Managing your diabetes- Diabetes can be a big reason for your yeast infection to persist. All your medical issues are related and one can elevate issues for another.
-
Choosing the right product- Your intimates are very sensitive. The men’s intimate wash that you use as well as any other products should be4 made for your skin type and also be made of natural ingredients.

I’m so happy to testify of the good work of Dr Maggi , I have been Suffering from Herpes virus since 2018 and i had frequent symptoms in my private area, after some time it will go away after using acyclovir drugs, then come back after some months. it was disheartening since i have been diagnosed, but after finding Dr Maggi and his reviews i was convinced that he will definitely cure me and so i contacted him and he told me how to get his medicine and using it for just 14 days and i will go for check up and first i said how can that be possible but i used his herbal medicine after making purchase and truly i used it and went for the test again, and my result came back negative. so i made it a task to share this good testimony in the internet so that those sick can benefit and get cured.
