I have a yeast infection under my stoma from taking antibiotic. Have taken one round of medication but it still very bad.  Does anyone have any experience on how to clear the skin and the iching problems.Tks

Hi Delves.  So many folks have experienced similar experiences and lots of remedies have been offered.  Try using the "search" function with words that fit your situation.  I'll try to do the same and report back to you.  In the meantime, an antifungal liquid that dries completely might help. Certainly a WONC nurse should be helpful.

Sorry,

Mike
