It is a completely natural state of affairs that there are about 100 species of fungi in the human body. However, due to a weakened immune system, they overgrow and cause various diseases.
There are three groups of pathogenic fungi:
The first group is yeasts. This includes candida. Within this group, most infections are caused by Candida albicans (white yeast).
The second group is moulds. These are often ingested through food, but can also be found in the air.
The third large group is dermatophytes. They mainly reproduce on human skin and nails.
A fungal infection can produce a wide variety of symptoms.
Now let’s look at the 7 most common, typical symptoms.
1. Very common symptoms are itching, tingling around the anus, unpleasant burning sensations.
2. Chronic fatigue, sleepiness, lethargy, lethargy in waves.
3. Gastrointestinal complaints: mainly bloating, gas, less frequently diarrhoea.
4. Another important symptom of fungal infection is loss of concentration and attention.
5. Fungal disease may be indicated by the appearance of herpes, aphthae in the mouth, frequent chapping of the oral cavity.
6. Fungal patients often have recurrent sinusitis and inflammation of the sinuses.
7. Hair loss, patchy baldness, very severe dandruff and very greasy hair are also common symptoms.

Other symptoms of candida fungus include yellowish-white plaque on the tongue
The symptoms of candida can usually be summarised in these 7+1 symptoms. The most common telltale symptom, often overlooked by many, is that candida causes hair loss, herpes or aphthae, or uncomfortable burning sensations around the anus.
If you start to suspect after the 7 symptoms, you are not alone. 6 out of 10 people are infected with some type of fungus.

What is rectal mycosis?
Rectal thrush is an infection that develops on the skin or mucous membranes of the anus and surrounding areas. The fungal infection is most commonly caused by a fungus called Candida albicans, but other fungal species may also play a role.
What are the symptoms of anal fungus?
Itching and burning sensation: these are the most common symptoms. The infected area can cause itching and burning, which can cause discomfort during everyday activities.

Pain or discomfort: Pain or discomfort may be experienced in the infected area, especially when defecating or cleaning the rectal area.
Unpleasant odour: An unpleasant odour may be present due to the proliferation of fungi and the dampness of the infected area.
How is anal thrush treatment recommended?
Antifungal medicines: in most cases, treating rectal mycosis involves the use of antifungal medicines. These medicines are available in different forms, such as ointments, creams, suppositories or even oral tablets. These medicines act directly on the fungal infection, helping to relieve symptoms and promote healing.
Hygiene measures: It is important to follow good hygiene measures to prevent the spread of infection. For example, it is important to wash and dry the affected area regularly, use clean underwear, and avoid detergents containing irritants such as fragrances or dyes.
