What is oral thrush?

Oral candidiasis, also known as oral thrush, is a condition in which the fungus Candida albicans grows on the lining of the mouth. Candida is a normal organism in your mouth but can overgrow and cause symptoms at times. Oral candidiasis produces creamy white lesions on the tongue or inside of the cheeks. It can also spread to the roof of your mouth, your gums, tonsils, or the back of your throat in some cases.¹ Even though oral thrush can affect anyone, it is more common in babies and older adults due to decreased immunity, in people with compromised immune systems or certain health conditions, or in people who take certain treatments. If you’re healthy, oral thrush is a minor issue; however, symptoms may be more severe and difficult to control if you have a weak immune system.

Good Monday to you. Is so hot in the city. Try to stay hydrated. I wish you a pleasant hot day.

Good afternoon how are you? Is so hot in England. I do not need a sauna. I think for tomorrow I will bring my creams to improve my skin condition. By the way how do I look with the patient glasses? I like them.
