Thrush is a yeast infection that affects the mouth and tongue, taking hold in the mucus membrane lining. Thrush is also known as candidiasis or oral thrush. It’s cause is the fungas called Candida. This yeast can, under normal conditions, be kept at normally low levels by the immune system, but our immune system can be compromised by steroid medications, antibiotics, or poor health.
Who is more vulnerable? Those with high blood sugar levels are more prone to have issues with thrush. Infants can develop a thrash infection as well, and though it is common most thrush infections should clear up within a week or two.
The symptoms of thrush are white lesions on the tongue or in the mouth. The tissue under the lesions can bleed. In many cases thrush is spotted by your doctor or dentist. Candida can spread in the body, leading to infections in the esophagus, heart, joints, eyes, even the brain.
