Where is a yeast infection located?

A yeast infection can occur anywhere in or on the body.A yeast infection is an overload of candida that grows into a fungal infection.If no other body part is specified; the most common location where it is actually called a yeast infection is the vagina. So when a women says "I have a yeast infection"; it is assumed they mean in the genital area.However; yeast infections do occur in both men and women of any age, including children. A yeast infection can happen in the mouth, or in the throat. It can happen on the skin, in the armpits, on the feet, under the breasts or in folds of fat; and pretty much anywhere.Anywhere a moist, warm fleshy area can develop and be left alone without cleansing it is possible for candida fungus to grow.Yeast infections that occur in other locations (or in children) are often given a variant name even though they are technically the same fungal growth.For example a yeast infection in a child's mouth is typically called thrush mouth; to avoid the stigma of associating a vaginal infection with a child's mouth infection even though they are both technically from the same yeast fungus.A yeast infection in a man's armpit is usually called intertrigo.There are a variety of terms used for the same identical (candida) yeast infection depending on gender, age and body location.
