First up though, lets take a quick look at some children yeast infection causes.

You had probably noticed that your child is going through a phase where he may be a bit less well than usual. He may seem to have a constant cold, or just gets run down a lot easier. This is because the anti-bodies that he got from you are becoming less effective and his own immunity is starting to develop. This usually starts at around age 3.

As a coincidence this is also the age that many kids start preschool or day care, so a whole new batch of bugs are being introduced into their fragile systems.

Part of their immune system that is developing is the balance of good and bad bacteria in their digestive system and while this balance is being established they may struggle with fungal overgrowth problems.

This may continue until their immunity is fully developed, usually by around puberty. This is all a natural process and the exposure to small amounts of these bugs actually help them to develop a strong immune system.

What are some common children yeast infection symptoms?
Rashes, itching and burning feelings are the usual symptoms of Candida in your child. Rashes are relatively easy to spot, but also be aware that they may have itching or burning sensations that they do not know how to tell you about. Sometimes the only sign is that they do not want to go to the toilet or they have their hands down their pants or hold onto their crotch a lot. Sometimes the only sign of a yeast infection is that they are grumpier than usual!

Sometimes it is helpful to be aware that children yeast infection signs can appear on more than one area. For example, if you notice that they have an oral infection because they are both part of the digestive system you can then be on the lookout for an infection on the genitals.

Signs of other infections include;
An oral infection is indicated by white spots in the mouth, a white coating on the tongue, but the first sign that you may notice is that your child has really bad breath.
If they are constantly rubbing between their toes or complaining that their toes hurt then check to see if there are the tell tale cracks of Athletes Foot there.

Treating Children Yeast Infection Symptoms
Most of the usual remedies are fine for children and work really well;
Tea Tree Oil - Do not forget to dilute it really well!
Colloidal Silver - my favorite cure-all! Just spray onto the affected area.
Unsweetened natural yogurt
Garlic - make sure that it is crushed or freshly grated
Vinegar - either Cider Vinegar or diluted White Vinegar

Are all Ok for kids and they do heal really quickly. But the most important part of the treatment is to make sure that you lower the chances of it coming back.

Preventing a yeast infection in youngsters is difficult, especially from a hygiene perspective. While they do not understand the importance of wiping themselves properly, changing their undies regularly, eating a balanced diet, or the fact that having probiotics on their breakfast is actually really good for them, it is important to persevere so that eventually they do have an understanding hopefully without experiencing the full effects of Candida.

Did you know that childhood illnesses such as eczema, hives, colic, diarrhoea, ear infections and even asthma have been linked to chronic Candidiasis caused by untreated children yeast infection symptoms?
