im a male and im 16 and im fairly sure that i have a yeast infection, its not on the shaft or the scrotum, more like on the sides of the scrotum between the thighs and scrotum, id rather not tell my parents except as a last resort, what are some ways i can treat it?
wow, im dumb, its jock itch, haha, thanks for the help, except you gabe, you’re a fag with no life
i mean gage, ur a fag

I was wondering if someone could help me determine what I have.

My skin on the bottom part of my scrotum red compared to the color of the rest of my scrotum. Unless washed everyday, the skin begins to peel / flake / cracking skin and become itchy.

I have read many sources at yahoo answers, Wikipedia and other pages

I have read all the symptoms of jock itch and it seems most probable, but what concerns me most is that most jock itch cases affect the groin area while mine is only a patch on my scrotum.

As I’ve read here:

http://chealth.canoe.ca/channel_condition_info_details.asp?disease_id=171&channel_id=2003&relation_id=12003

"Classic jock itch affects the inner thighs and lower buttocks, not the genitalia themselves. If the scrotum is inflamed, it’s probably due to a different yeast condition called candidiasis, and a physician should be consulted."

1. Does this mean I have candidiasis (yeast infection)?
2. Where could I have received this from?
3. Could it infect any one whom I have sexual intercourse with being on the lower portion of my scrotum ?

I am lead to believe it is a yeast infection because after sexual intercourse with a female, she produces a white flaky substance (solid) (best describes as small pieces of wet paper mache) out of her vagina.
Oh and the most obvious question what should I do if it is a yeast infection, is it required to consult a doctor?

How do I talk to her about it?

Hi im a 13 y/o boy who has just been informed to have a yeast infection.i have not had sex so what could be the causes? another question is does the infection normally smell? and the last question is i heard that some eating habits can feed the yeast so what can i eat to make the healing process quicker my doctor has already prescribed a cream but i dont want to be eating anything that could be making it worse.ty in advance
so does is it normal that my infection smells?
will the smell go away with the yeast infection

I was wondering seeing as how they are both fungal infections…let me know please!

I notice that i got a yeast infection from antibiotics i was taking and im worried if i passed it to my boyfriend we had unprotected sex twice and don’t know if he has it to. Im using vagisil and don’t know if i should buy medicine for him or not just in case . How would i know if he gots it? And how long would it take to notice he has it? And what can i buy for him to used just in case?

What can I say – I’m a typical man. I don’t want to go to the doctor.

What are the signs and symptoms of a yeast infection.What is the difference between a yeast infection and vaginitis?What are the signs and symptoms of vaginitis?What exactly is vaginitis?How do you get rid of either one if you have the symptoms?

When a male gets thrush, does this mean it has been transferred to him by another female or can males get this through other means than sex?

I was just wondering if it is possible for my boyfriend to have gotten a yeast infection from me when I have never had one, nor have I ever had any signs or symptoms of one. Just curious- it seems kinda strange to me.

My friend has it and she’s pregnant… is it common for pregnant women to get a yeast infection?

Hello there, I am a guy and I have gotten a yeast infection from my fiance. I dont have the really bad symptoms, but I do have a bit of discoloring and white tiny chunks appear occasionally.
