Yeast infection in back area?

I have had yeast infections but need to know if this infection can travel back to the anus area. I do nto have itch in vagina anymore but I didnt get it treated. Is it possible to be 'cured' for vaginal and have anal yeast infection? Is there even something called 'anal yeast infection?' Help! I can control the itch but once i start, I cant stop (therefore, irritation).

I forgot to add that I have had the same partner for 8 months and had a complete gynecological checkup about 2 months ago. I asked by gyno if i had any STD and she said no (2 months ago). Any other help???

You might want to be sure you get tested for diabetes. If you are a diabetic you need to know because yeast infections are very common if blood sugar is too high too frequently.
The better you control diabetes the less frequently you'll have yeast infections. How much sugar are you getting in your diet? Even if you're not a diabetic you could be having yeast infections from the amount of sugar you are consuming.
Also you might want to look up CANDIDA. This is an "overall" yeast infection in the body more serious than a yeast infection in the vagina.

Never heard of a "back door" yeast infection but there are some STD's that have the symptoms you describe. Or it might possibly be the soap you're using is either something you are allergic to or you need to rinse better. I'd check out the STD and possibly crabs also! Maybe chose your partners a little more discriminatory!

Maybe you just have a bad case of hemorrhoids. They can also itch like crazy. Use Tucks, or Prep-H. This will burn at first, because of irritation, but what a relief it will be in the end.

I woudls go see the Dr. Dude, you can get the herp back there and pinworm and roids and all sorts of other stuff that can itch. I had poison ivy so bad it got into my mucos membranes and yea buddy what a time that was! I would alternate prep- h for a bit with hydrocortosone cream and take Liquid benadryle at night so you don't scratch your a ss off. If it still flares up after 2or 3 days Id go to el Dr.

you are very sick.....if you can find a doctor willing to look at you you best go

also try eating more yougurt. yeast infections are usually from antibotics and if you eat yougurt while on them you should not get the yeast infection. next time don't wait for it to spread. wasn't fun was it, and you had to pay the doctor bill an.yway
