Who this consultation is for
The Candida fungus causes candidiasis, a fungal infection that can affect various parts of the body, such as the mouth, throat, genital area and other moist areas of the skin.
Common symptoms include pain, itching, redness, swelling and discharge, varying according to the area affected.
A healthcare professional usually diagnoses candidiasis based on clinical symptoms and, in some cases, confirms the diagnosis through laboratory tests.
Candidiasis can occur in the mouth (oral candidiasis), in the genital area (genital candidiasis), on the skin, nails and other moist areas of the body.
To treat candidiasis, doctors usually prescribe antifungal drugs, such as creams, ointments or tablets. The type and duration of treatment depends on the severity of the infection and the area affected.
Certain factors, such as prolonged use of antibiotics, a weakened immune system, diabetes, pregnancy and the use of oral contraceptives, can increase the risk of developing candidiasis. It is therefore important to be aware of these factors in order to prevent infection.
We offer you a Consultation service, where we use a questionnaire to quickly and safely create a personalised plan to deal with your situation.
Our doctors suggest and approve treatments in accordance with best practice in Portugal. This service is intended for non-urgent situations.
If you don't feel well, call 112 in urgent or emergency cases, or SNS 24 - 808242424 in non-urgent situations.
If you have any doubts about your health problem or treatment, we advise you to book an appointment with Telephone Consultation or Video Appointment.
