Candidiasis occurs when there is overgrowth
Of the fungus called candida albicans
Women usually have genital itching or burning
With or without a "cottage cheese-like" vaginal discharge
It occurs more frequently and more severely
In people with weakened immune systems

Candida usually live in the mouth, gastrointestinal tract - and vagina
Thrush is the name for a mouth infection caused by the candida - albicans fungus
It affects moist surfaces around the lips, inside the cheeks - and on the tongue and palate
If you try to scrape off this whitish surface, you will usually find a red - inflamed area

Candida infections
Of the mouth
Can spread
To the esophagus causing esophagitis

Candida esophagitis
May make
Swallowing difficult or painful

Candida can cause
Skin infections

Cutaneous candidiasis
Causes patches of red
Sometimes with small pustules nearby

In deep candidiasis, candida fungi contaminate the bloodstream
And spread throughout the body, causing severe infection

From unexplained fever to shock and multiple organ - failure
