Male yeast infection

Fungal vaginitis is a common disease among women, but the incidence of fungal infection in men has also increased in recent years, which has a lot to do with its characteristic of being transmitted through sexual contact.

It is understood that mold 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 life creates conditions for Candida infection. Whether the external genitalia of men and women are infected with Candida, they can be transmitted to each other through sexual contact. The inner side of the male foreskin is an ideal growth site for Candida albicans, and those with excessive foreskin are more susceptible to Candida albicans infection. After Candida infection, the following symptoms generally appear: Initially, the skin damage is erythema and papules, covered with soft white scales, with white exudate, and small blisters, pustules and superficial erosions may appear around, accompanied by itching and burning sensations.

Generally, when a woman is diagnosed with Candida albicans, we always prescribe some medicine for her to take home and give to her husband. Some women think it is unnecessary or do not want their husbands to know that they have this disease, thinking it is a "dirty" disease. In fact, although sexual contact is the most common way to get infected with Candida albicans, it can also be caused by contact with contaminated bathtubs, towels, swimsuits, toilets, etc. If you hide the disease from your husband and he does not receive timely treatment, it is not worth it.

Experts remind male friends: When your sexual partner is found to have Candida albicans infection, you should first think of going to the doctor yourself. You don't have to wait until you have symptoms to see a doctor. You should also choose to be treated in a regular hospital. The doctor will perform secretion culture and drug sensitivity test, select the appropriate medicine and dosage, and conduct regular checkups until the disease is completely cured. You should know that the treatment methods for men are different from those for women, and some antifungal drugs have greater side effects and need to be taken under the guidance of a doctor. Don't just buy some medicine and take it yourself, which will lead to repeated attacks.
