The yeast Candidida is the cause of "yeast" infections. It causes localized inflammation of the skin. This is why you get the sores. A good treatment is to use plain yoghurt on the area. Women frequently get yeast infections in the vagina and one of my preferred prescriptions is to have them dip a tampon in plain live yoghurt and insert it into the vagina. More often that not, this provides them with a total cure. Consuming too much vinegar can lead to yeast infections, as can infection with the HIV virus.
