About thrush treatment
In St John's Wood, a GP reviews your symptoms and history to assess thrush, only examining you in clinic if the diagnosis needs it. You'll get a clear explanation of the diagnosis and a treatment plan suited to you. Antifungal treatment, where clinically indicated, is arranged with your pharmacy that day. See our national page at /conditions/thrush/ for more.
About thrush
A common yeast infection, thrush happens when Candida overgrows, most often in the genital area but also the mouth and skin folds. It usually causes itching, soreness, a thick white discharge in genital cases, and redness or irritation where it occurs. Thrush is rarely serious and generally clears well with antifungal treatment, though it's worth seeing a GP if it keeps coming back.
