Does Yeast Infection Cause Red Itchy Facial Rash And Lip Blister?

I have a red itchy facial rash for approx a week. Two days ago I developed a blister on my bottom lip and yesterday I started having a vaginal yeast infection for which I took a over the counter yeast infection medication last night. I am female age 54. 5/4 tall. I have arthritis.

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.

You should take the diflucan tablet once a week for three months. Please take the drugs under your doctors guidance.

Please get your blood sugar done as high blood sugar is the most common cause of the fungal infection in females. Controlling the sugar can prevent the infection from going ahead.

Please do not do sexual intetcourse as it can further increases cross infection chance.

You can wear condom either while doing inter course.

Please maintain good hygiene as it is equally important in prevention of the further infection.

I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun.

Thank you,
Dr Arun Tank
