Frequently Asked Questions

A skin yeast infection is a fungal infection caused by an overgrowth of yeast, most commonly Candida. These infections tend to develop in warm, moist areas of the body such as the groin, armpits, under the breasts, between skin folds, and around the buttocks.

Common symptoms include redness, itching, burning, skin irritation, and a rash that may appear shiny or moist. Some people develop small bumps or pustules around the edges of the affected area.

Most skin yeast infections are treated with antifungal creams, ointments, powders, or prescription medications. Keeping the affected area clean and dry is also an important part of treatment and recovery.

Skin yeast infections are more common in people with diabetes, obesity, excessive sweating, weakened immune systems, or skin folds that trap moisture. Hot and humid weather can also increase the risk.

Recurring infections may be caused by persistent moisture, friction, underlying medical conditions, or incomplete treatment of a previous infection. Identifying and addressing contributing factors can help reduce future outbreaks.
