Yeast infections usually happen in warm, moist parts of the body, such as the mouth , and moist areas of skin. A yeast infection in the vagina is known as vulvovaginal candidiasis. Vaginal yeast infections can cause pain, itching, redness, a thick white vaginal discharge, pain during urination peeing , and sometimes whitish patches on the skin of the vaginal area. If your daughter has a vaginal yeast infection, her doctor can prescribe treatment to clear up the symptoms in a couple of days and cure the infection within a week. Having small amounts of Candida on the skin and inside the mouth, digestive tract, and vagina is normal. A healthy immune system and some "good" bacteria keep the amount in a person's body under control.
