Answer:
Yeast infections can be gotten by even tiny girls from just sitting in the dirt or mud and playing.
You should talk with your mother or an adult female or even your Dr.
Cures for a yeast infection are easy bought at the store.
Also, go for a name brand and not an elcheapo, in the long run the brand name will work faster.
{Depending on where you get it and the brand name, it's gonna cost somewhere between $13.00 and $17.00 plus tax.}
Just remember to finish out the whole treatment and don't just stop using the treatment when you start feeling better, to work properly the treatment needs to run its full course of time, or you risk reinfection.
Also, old wife's would use plain yogurt with active cultures, to cure yeast infections. Even sour cream will work.
In a pinch even plain white milk will help ease the pain.
Any treatment you try should be done at night so your not up running around and loose what you've got.
Place a towel under you at night to catch any out pouring of treatment.
Yes, plenty of water and cranberry juice should help as well, to clean out your system.
hope you are feeling better soon.
You probably have a yeast infection. This is not a diagnosis, you need to see your doctor because it could be something more serious. It does sound like a yeast infection though and your doctor can prescribe something for you or suggest something over the counter for you. Hope this helps.
Pretty positive its a yeast infection, but go see a doctor before you try to take anything. If you have taken antibiotics recently then there is more of a chance that its a yeast infection. If it is, no big deal, they clear up pretty fast with medication.
If your female, it sounds like a urinary track infection. You don't have to be sexually active to get one. You need to see a doctor for an antibiotic, pills you will take for about ten days. You can also get relief by drinking cranberry juice. While your at the doctor, talk about ways to prevent future ones.
Sounds to me like it's a yeast infection. Women that get these also tend to have a yellowish discharge and an odor "down there." You do not have to be sexually active to get a yeast infection. There is over the counter yeast infection cures, such as vagisil; they are usually found near the pharmacy and feminine products in drug stores and grocery stores. Try one. If it doesn't work I would consult a gynecologist.
Your avatar shows you a male? right? if so that leaves out a yeast infection but?
You may have a bladder infection, that can and will hurt. Drink more cranberry juices but, it's not a cure all. You may have to go and see your doctor, don't worry, he's seen it all. A simple prescription may cure all your problems.
it's possible you have a yeast infection, you could have jock itch, or even crabs, having a itch 'down there' isn't much to go on
