What Causes Yeast Infection?

I think I might have a yeast infection but I am not sure. I get a lot of yeast that I remove with q tips that can be itchy a little bit and kind of uncomfortable. It also burns a little bit. Today the yeast had a greenish look to it and smelled like rotten eggs. I don't know what to do or what is wrong with me

Thanks for your query at HCM!
I went through your query!

You need set of investigations to come to diagnosis whether it is candida infection or Trichomoniasis(more likely).
You might need treatment accordingly antifungal or anti-parasitic.
Kindly tell me symptoms in detail? Which part is involved? Duration? Previous medications? Are you female pregnant? Diabetic?
Happy to take more queries! You can also write a review for me. If you would like some more information, I will be happy to provide.
Take care!
