Have you recently suspected something wrong going on down below in your nether regions, but you're unsure what it could be? Today I will dispel any question you may have regarding the possibility of a yeast infection.
You'll soon know for sure, by knowing what a yeast infection looks like and knowing exactly what to look for.
What a Yeast Infection looks like: Redness, Rash and General Irritation - This is one of the most visual & obvious of symptoms of all.
There can also be some swelling, but generally redness will be one of the first red flags to know that something is developing.
Discharge - This is a very common symptom to be aware of in knowing what a yeast infection looks like.
The discharge can be thick and chunky or completely thin and watery.
As far as color goes it can be clear, white or yellow with some infections having brown discharge.
The next few symptoms are less visual symptoms, but are entirely valid and should be watched out for anytime you suspect an infection.
Burning - This is a very common symptom, it can occur both outside on the vaginal lips and within the vagina.
Itching - This is another very common symptom.
Odor - This symptom may not describe what a yeast infection looks like but it certainly can be smelled! If you smell a rising yeast smell like that of rising bread or fermenting beer then its absolutely a yeast infection.
If you smell a fishy foul odor it's likely a bacterial infection and should be inspected by your doctor immediately! Pain - This symptom is normally felt during sex or during urination.
If the pain is felt inside closer to your bladder go see your doctor immediately as this would indicate a bladder infection.
Fortunately there are natural treatments for vaginal yeast infections that work incredibly well and fast, sometimes relief can be had in minutes! You just need to know which ones to use and how to use them.
