-===Thrush and Breastfeeding===
+==[[Oral candidiasis causes|Causes]]==
-Because of the increased use of antibiotics in laboring women to reduce the transmission of [[Group B streptococcal infection]] to the infant, thrush has become more prevalent. Symptoms include:
-* An oral rash in the infant's mouth
-* A diaper rash that does not heal with conventional diaper rash treatments and ointments,
-* Burning, painful nipples for the breastfeeding mother.
-The rash and pain experienced by the mother can range from severe to mild and may complicate [[breastfeeding]]. Because thrush is assumed to be benign, it may be difficult to obtain treatment for an outbreak in the diaper area of an infant or mother's nipples. Over the counter yeast infection cream, that comes in the 7-day package, can be applied to the skin with good results within 24 - 48 hours. It should be washed off nipples before breastfeeding.
-==Diagnosis==
+==[[Oral candidiasis differential diagnosis|Differentiating Oral Candidiasis from other Diseases]]==
-===Symptoms===
-Adults may experience discomfort or burning in the mouth. Symptoms of candidiasis in the esophagus may include pain and [[dysphagia]] ([[difficult swallowing]]).
+==[[Oral candidiasis epidemiology and demographics|Epidemiology and Demographics]]==
-In babies the condition is termed thrush and is usually painless and causes no discomfort.
+==[[Oral candidiasis risk factors|Risk Factors]]==
-===Physical Examination===
+==[[Oral candidiasis natural history, complications and prognosis|Natural History, Complications and Prognosis]]==
-Oral infections of candidia usually appear as thick white or cream-colour deposits. Underlying the deposits the mucosa of the mouth may appear inflamed (red and possibly slightly raised). Oral lesions are painless, white patches in the mouth.

 ==Treatment==
-Any underlying cause, such as poor glucose control in diabetics, should be addressed. Oral candidiasis can be treated with topical [[anti-fungal]] drugs, such as [[nystatin]] (mycostatin), [[miconazole]] or [[amphotericin B]]. Patients who are immunocompromised, either with HIV/AIDS or as a result of chemotherapy, may require systemic treatment with oral or intravenous administered anti-fungals.

-For adults, mild cases can be first treated by drinking acidic substances, such as orange juice, to make a harsher environment for the yeast and eating yogurt to replenish bacterial count that controls the yeast. If home treatment is not effective a physician may need to be consulted.
-==Prevention==
+==Case Studies==
-Nosocomial disease surveillance is conducted by NNIS in selected hospitals. Active population-based surveillance for candidemia is being conducted in selected U.S. sites.
