    What is Candida spp?

    Dr. ANUVITHA KAMATH

    Candida albicans is a yeast(type of fungus) that lives in our bodies in small amounts. In people with weak immunity systems, the fungus can flare up leading to severe infections like oral thrush and fungal skin infections. Oral thrush is a fungal infection in which the fungus Candida albicans accumulates on the lining of the mouth. It leads to creamy white patches on the tongue and inner cheeks. It can also spread to gums, tonsils, and throat. It is seen in immunocompromised patients, patients with diabetes, HIV, and oral steroid medications. A yeast infection on the skin in adults is caused by the Candida app. The symptoms of this are red, itchy rash, or white patches on the skin. It also leads to skin soreness and dryness. The treatment consists of the application of an antifungal cream containing nystatin, miconazole, or clotrimazole. It has to be applied for about 7 to 14 days. For severe infections, oral fluconazole tablets can also be given. Along with this proper hygiene must be maintained.
