What is Vaginal Thrush?
Vaginal thrush is an infection of the vulva and vagina, most commonly caused by the yeast Candida albicans. The proportion of this yeast fungus is about 85 percent. However, there are also other yeast fungi such as Candida glabrata or Candida tropicalis that can promote such an infection. Many women of childbearing age are colonized by yeast fungi in their intimate areas, but in most cases this is not a problem as long as the immune system and vaginal flora are strong enough or balanced. Because then the fungi cannot spread much, but arrange themselves in the normally functioning flora. However, if there are good living conditions for the yeast fungus, it manifests itself, among other things, in reddening of the vagina. In addition, those affected often suffer from pain during sex, crumbly discharge or a burning and itchy vagina.

How can anal fistulas be treated?
An anal fistula is not to be taken lightly, you should definitely go to the doctor, as it usually has to be surgically removed. In order to be able to treat it, the fistula is opened up to the underlying abscess so that the pus can drain out. The abscess must also be opened by the doctor, which is done with a scalpel. This also allows the pus to drain out of the abscess cavity, which is then cleaned. The resulting wound is not initially closed with a suture so that it does not close too quickly. The reason for this is that more pus needs to be drained first, which is why a drain is often placed through which the liquid can escape. Only when the reason for the fistula has been found can it heal completely. The bad news is that anal fistulas often come back and require follow-up treatment.
