What is the difference between bacterial infection and yeast infection?


Question:
I have bacterial infection could I use monostat 3 for that?

Answers:
A bacterial infection is caused by a bacteria and needs antibiotics. A yeast infection is caused by an overgrowth of yeast and you use an anti fungal such as monostat for that. They are not the same thing. If you have been diagnosed with a bacterial infection a doctor would have had to do that so where is your prescription. If you are self diagnosing, bad idea.
You need antibiotics for a bacterial infection. Monistat is only good for yeast.
