What Is The Treatment For Yeast Infection And Eczema?
I really need help. I m 14 and on antibiotics. i think that gave me a yeast infection, so i got monistat and it worked, but then it came back two weeks later and the itching spread to my anal area. and now its a lot worse because its always really moist down there/irritated and i looked there today, and the skin around that area was dry/darkened and looked a bit like eczema.

The possible diagnosis of the condition based on the description of the lesions is candidiasis which is a fungal infection. You must avoid heat and humidity. Topical antifungal creams like clotrimazole can be used along with oral antifungals like fluconazole after consulting your dermatologist. Diabetes needs to be ruled out as it is one of the predisposing factors.Consult your dermatologist regarding the above mentioned therapy. Regards
