Yeast Infection On My Bum
[ Sunday November 1st 2026 at 11:41 am ]
Back in September I thought there was a bit of chaffing in the middle of my bum. It was just a small area. I purchased Sudocrem to help the skin heal. I wasn't too surprised. There was still swelling that was the result of my right knee replacement. Instead of getting better it continued to spread.
For try number 2 I went to my family doctor. I was prescribed the 2% Fucidin Ointment. This is used to treat skin infections. I figured 7 to 10 days of this would be all the skin needed to heal. Again instead of helped the redness was spreading.
What is left is that I actually had a yeast infection. I now have a cream to treat this. Lord willing by the time I have my left knee replacement the worst of this will be over. I should add that I didn't enjoy having to show this to my family doctor. But they were gracious with me. Ironically the photo plus 3 good questions helped them realize what was wrong.
Onward and upward.
