How do I prevent or lessen the savaroty of thrush when on antibiotics?
I'm on very strong antibiotics for gall and liver infections. This is my 3rd script in 4 months while I wait for surgery. After 1 pill, I already feel the signs of thrush 9hrs alter. Im following my dr instructions. I'm taking a pro biotic pill, then I'm drinking yakult like water. I have salt baths twice a day. No underwear and let down there breath as much as possible. Fresh towel daily don't use any soaps or body washing at all. Just good old hot water.
What else can I do? Last time I was stripped down there. It was all external but I was bleeding and my skin cracked.
Ps, I'm having my gall removed as soon as I'm clear of infection...

Poor love. This is me too. Use cannisten cream, cannisten pessaries, and cannisten oral tablets. It should clear it up.
The creams do help soothe a little, but not much. The pills are useless while taking the meds sadly
The only advice I have is to stop the salt baths and stop using hot water. Both salt and hot water will dry skin and dry skin will crack and bleed.
Warm water only.
When I had thrush the pessaries worked for me. You can wear underwear, just make sure it is 100% cotton.
I hope it clears up for you soon.
