  1. This may sound stupid, it may not work, or whatever, but try putting some yogurt on it, the kind that contains acidophilus bacteria, which are friendly bacteria--you can eat them, so they won't harm your skin.

    Some guys who develop yeast infections on their penises use this, and it works for them, it's cheap, readily available, and it's worth a try.

    I know it sounds silly and unusual, but sometimes these remedies can work.    If condition persists, however, you need to see a doctor.

    It sounds like you have already seen one, otherwise you wouldn't have gone into such detail, and I wouldn't have advised you to try this otherwise.

    Good luck to you.


  2. Hi there,

    I have a bunch of suggestions I normally make for anyone suffering from a vaginal yeast infection. In your case they still all apply, just use the same treatments for your back.

    There are many things you need to start doing and addressing if you are suffering from a yeast infection. To start, do the following:

    1. Wear loose clothing and undergarments, oxygen kills yeast, going commando and wearing nothing down there if possible is even better.

    2. Get some unsweetened yogurt and rub it onto the infection. Leave it on for as long as possible.

    3. Cut out any and all sugar, alcohol and yeast from your diet. All three will promote the infection further.

    4. If you can tolerate it, use a raw garlic clove and apply it to the infection, this may burn so dilute it with some olive or coconut oil, both of which can also help eliminate the yeast, especially the coconut.

    5. You can also try taking some vitamin B3, many women find their infections resolve quicker when they are taking 300mg/per day.

    6. Take a probiotic with at least 50 billion live cells per pill, this is key in redistributing good bacteria throughout your body, and effectively end the yeast infection. You must do this continually until you have eliminated your yeast infections and Candida entirely.

    7. Lastly if all else fails, begin adding 2 cups of apple cider vinegar to a bath. Only fill the tub up high enough to submerge your genital area. Stay in the tub for 20-30 minutes at a time.

    Hope this helps, the yogurt is the key really, by putting good bacteria directly on the area you will eliminate it quickly. Make sure it is unsweetened and ideally keep an eye out for a variation called Kefir which has even more beneficial bacteria in it to snuff out the infection.

    When all is said and done I would suggest you research Candida and take a test to determine if you are suffering from it, as anyone who gets yeast infections has Candida, it's just a matter of how bad it is.
