Infectious Diseases Specialist, Dr. Arun's Response
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.
Yes, it is a yeast infection look like. But if you have lichen sclerosis than yeast infection can arises because of the possible treatment you are taking.
You should take antifungal medication and can avoid taking immunosuppressive medication associated with the lichen. Instead you can take those medication which cant affect your immunity status.
Please avoid sexual exposure until you are cured. Or you can do sex with the condom as protection. Maintaining good glycemic control can help you recovering from the infection.
I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun.
Thank you, Dr Arun Tank Infectious diseases specialist, HCM.
