There are two types of
thrush – oral and vaginal thrush. Oral thrush is also known as
oropharyngeal cancer. This is a type of yeast infection which
develops on your tongue and inside your mouth. We know that small
amount of Candida albicans fungus is normally presented in our
mouths. When our immune system cannot maintain its natural defense
against this fungus and it grows out of control, then is happening
the oral thrush. This infection leads to slightly raised creamy –
white lesions which are usually on your tongue and inner cheeks. If
you do not control this infection at time, then it can spread to the
back of your throat, to the roof of your mouth, gums and tonsils.
Also there are other signs and symptoms in your mouth which include
loss of taste, difficulty swallowing, a cottony feeling, soreness
and redness. Every single person can develop this condition but it
is more common in infants, elderly people, those who wear dentures
and those who have a weak immune system. People who have cancer, a
vaginal yeast infection or diabetes are also more prone to it.
Vaginal thrush is a type of infection from which most women suffer
from. This infection affects up to three out of four women at some
point at their lives. There are some women who have experienced this
infection more than one episode of it. Vaginal thrush is also known
as candidal vulvovaginits or a vaginal yeast infection which occurs
due to excessive growth of candida (yeast) in the vagina. When there
are normal circumstances, your vagina has a balanced mix of yeast
which is including candida and bacteria. The bacteria produce acid
which is preventing the yeast overgrowth. When the balance between
the naturally occurring yeast and the good bacteria is disrupted,
then this causes a yeast infection.
