Finding out you have a penis yeast infection can be a scary thing for many men.
Most men are actually quite vain - even though they don't like to admit it - and having problems in this particular area of their body, can really make them paranoid and self conscious.
The first thing you need to do is to visit your doctor and check that all it is only a yeast problem and that it is not anything more sinister.
Your doctor should also be able to give you some advice in regards to how you might have caught the infection.
It is might be likely that you caught it from a sexual partner, so you will have to speak to them and make sure they are checked out as well.
Another common way of getting a yeast infection is actually by having a poor diet and eating foods that the yeast bacteria thrive on.
These foods are predominantly anything that is sugary and sweet.
These are the types of foods that make you much more prone to an infection.
If you can cut these foods out of your life totally, then you are more than half away to solving this problem for good.
At the very minimum you should cut down on your intake of these items.
You also need to be aware that a problem such as this can be a sign of something much worse, such as diabetes.
This is another reason why as soon as you realize that you have it that you should take steps to investigate and deal with it straight away.
