Hi there,
I went to the doctors a while ago as I thought I'd had some severe itchyness in my genital area, which was also often red and made my skin raw and sore. I had an examination and then the doctor took a swab. I got my results back and the doctor said I had thrush. However, I've had treatment for it, and it's come back again. I was just wondering what the swab will have tested me for and if there is possible something else that I wasn't tested for that I may have, or may be the thrush infection has just come back? Is there a possibility it could be something else, that I maybe wasn't tested for with the swab?
Thank you
