Suggest Treatment For Pain In The Testicles
Question: i went to the doctor and was told i had a yeast infection and a non std virus. i had sex a week ago. my testicles are starting to ache a bit? what can cause this?
Brief Answer:
Yeast is also STD infection
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.
I read your query and understand your concerns.
It is possible that you contracted the yeast infection from your sex partner. It is important to understand that STDs are not limited to viral infection and even yeast infection is also a type of STD.
It is also important to inform you that yeast infection is largely treatable wth medication over the period of two to four weeks. In addition for the future avoid any kind of unprotected sex and with unfaithful partners.
I hope this answers you.
If you have more questions feel free to write back to me.
Thanks and regards.

can the yeast infection cause pain in testicles? i have bbeen treating it annd the bumps and itching is gone but my testicles are still aching.
Brief Answer:
Testicular pain is uncommon with yeast infection
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for reverting back to me.
Although testicular pain is very uncommon with yeast infection but it is possible. As per the available literature around 10-20% of patients with yeast infection have orchitis. Unfortunately it takes much time to disappear in compare to itching.
I hope this helps you.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.
