Hi Everyone,

I had a colostomy done in 1996 and within the last few weeks, for
the first time since I have had my colostomy, I have gotten a yeast
infection.

Does anyone have any ideas as to how to treat it? I did go to the
doctor and he gave me some cream to put on it and it is healing up.
But if anyone has any other suggestions, they would be greatly
appreciated. Thanks!!
