How to treat yeast infection in men

Among the many gynecological inflammations, fungal vaginitis is a more difficult type to treat, and it is also cross-infectious, so generally if a woman suffers from fungal vaginitis, the man will also have a fungal infection. The symptoms of male fungal infection may not be as obvious as those of females, but if the disease occurs, it will also bring great trouble to the patient. In order to truly understand male fungal infection, this article will analyze how to treat male fungal infection.

It is understood that the fungus is what we call Candida albicans. Although the probability of men being infected with Candida albicans is relatively small, the mechanical friction damage to the skin and mucous membranes caused by sexual intercourse creates conditions for Candida infection. Whether men or women have Candida infection in their external genitalia, it can be transmitted to each other through sexual contact.
