Alright, so I got a yeast infection on my skin down there and went to the cock doc, he told me to soak in salty water 3 times a day. The problem is that it only seems to be helping slightly.

Has anyone else dealt with this bullshit? I could use some advice, gonna see my GP fairly soon if I can't get it to go away.

I've heard of all sorts of shit from salt water to vinegar to monistat (vagina cream for yeast infections) to monistat + vinegar. I'm curious if anyone has had this before and what they did to get rid of it because yeast bacteria are resilient little fuckers.

Hey, at least I was relieved to know it wasn't herpes.

GP = Grand Parents?

I am guessing the cock doc knows best. Sorry for your troubles.

I would definitely talk to the doc, I don't want any 'home remedies' fucking around with me down there. Rather safe than sorry when it concerns down there.

Agreed. That's the last place you want to start experimenting on.

I read that olive oil helps. It was something with the fungus has a sour pH value. And that basic pH values removes it.

You can try Nodoro.

Too bad the site is down now. Its active ingredient is Clotrimazole. Clotrimazole is like the active ingredient to most creams for yeast infection.

Yeah, I'm not going to be going nuts with every crazy home remedy anyone recommends, I'm just wondering if anyone has had this and what they did to get rid of it lol.

Dunno how it is in Canada but in sweden I would trust the cock doc more than the GP. In Sweden some docs prescribe econazole (according to wikipedia known as ecostatin in Canada). If you go to your GP you might ask about it, see if he thinks it is a good idea.

If the infection persists you might get some systemic anti-fungal like diflucan.

Med. student here, but I haven't done my "cock-semester" so not really sure about this stuff...

lol, i just went to the normal doc (this happened when i was 14ish). i got some cream that you put down there (i think antifungal, fun stuff). I make sure to keep it squeaky clean under the hat now...

EDIT: btw, just be glad you don't have a poison ivy rash (i was so scared, the tip had swelled and had a bouncy ball sized lump on it). wash you're hands before peeing if you've just been planting trees at the cottage.

good life lessons...also be careful with heat rub

I'm reasonably sure I got it from a girl I was seeing since my hygiene is quite good. I could be wrong though because I always use protection (still though condoms only cover so much). I've even heard that the spermicide found on condoms can encourage yeast growth so who knows.

Not sure why your doc wouldn't just give you topical clotrimazole or nystatin, or oral fluconazole.

Funny thing about heat rub. One time when I was like 14 or 15 ish a friend bet me 20 bucks I wouldn't put A535 on my dick. I'm not sure the 20 bucks was worth the 45 minutes of burning pain. Life lessons indeed.

Yeah I dunno, thats why if it doesn't clear up I'm going to see my GP instead of the cock doc again.
