Suggest treatment for yeast infection
Patient: My daughter is about 10 weeks pregnant.  Her tongue has a yellow tint to it She did have an infection about 3 weeks ago (yeast).  Took an antibotic. but, the las week  she can't get rid of the yellow tongue.  She has no other problems.Thank you,Lori Doctor: Hello dear,Thank you for your contact to health care magic.I read and understand your concern. I am Dr Arun Tank answering your concern.I advice you to do Grams staining from the yellow coloured tint.If you receive report stating that you have candida infection than we can start the antifungal medication.Pregnancy is the condition of immunosuppression. So there is chance of yeast infection in it.But if you have fungal infection than you can take the fluconazole oral tablet under your doctors guidance to clear the infection.Please try to maintain the optimum sugar level. Because it is also important in maintaining the fungal infection.Please also maintain good hygiene level as it can also help in clearing infection.I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun.Thank you,Dr Arun TankInfectious diseases specialist,HCM.
