How To Get Rid Of The Brown Particles Of Yeast Infection?

I'm a diabetic whom seem to always have a yeast infection. But for a year now I've been wiping away brown, spec, like particles. All my doctors are saying this is part of the yeast. But what will it take to make this go away. All the other symptoms of the yeast are cured but the brown particles. One of my doctors thought it may have been skin. But I know better.

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.

No it will not look like yeast infection.

Yeast infection never causes brown discharge. It causes curdy white discharge.

Skin can be brown in color. So it is either the skin falling down or it is hemorrhage which is getting brown in color.

I advice you to do Grams staining from the discharge if it is yeast than the report will say Grams positive yeast cells is seen.

You can than take the treatment accordingly.

I advice you to maintain good hygiene as it is equally important in preventing the infection.

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

Thank you,
