Oral Thrush Symptoms

Trusted Health Products

When oral hygiene isn't a top priority you can start to develop different issues in your mouth. One of the most common issues that people experience is something called oral thrush. It is an infection of the mouth and the delicate tissues within it that give the tongue a white color. The infection is caused by an overgrowth of something called candida, which is a form of yeast. What's interesting about the presence of oral flush is that it can actually be caused by things other than oral health care. While most people have a small amount of candida fungus in their mouths, the problem begins when too much develops. 

The initial symptoms of this condition include white spots in the mouth. The spots are generally creamy in texture. They can be seen on the gums, inner cheek, tongue and the tonsils. They can sometimes be painful and there may even be a little bit of blood around the spots if they are prodded or scraped in any way. You may also experience cracked skin at the corners of your mouth. This can be incredibly painful. There have also been reports of difficulty swallowing.

Candida Overproduction

There are a few different things that ultimately can occur that may be attributed to oral thrush. The first is a reduced immune system. If your immune system is compromised in any way or you have a propensity of getting sick often, you may be at risk for the overproduction of candida. If you are on a lot of different medications, you may find that your body is more susceptible to other things that may be attacking it. So be very careful about the medications you take at any given time. If you are undergoing any type of treatment for a different disease, you also may be at greater risk.

The white mucus-like signs in the mouth may be raised or irritated upon inspection. These are called mucosa, which is a mucous membrane that gathers and populates in the mouth when you are suffering from oral thrush. It is very unpleasant and can cause difficulty eating and bad breath. Plus a yeast overgrowth anywhere in your body is not something you want to leave untreated. It can spread and get into your urinary tract and even your stomach. This type of mucus usually takes hold of the plaque that is also in the mouth and helps to spread it and populate new bacteria. Overall, this condition is very bad news and should be tended to as soon as symptoms are noticeable.

This is why keeping up with your hygiene practices are essential. Those with poor or lackadaisical hygiene are more susceptible to experiencing an overgrowth of candida. While many dentists would suggest prescription medication to eradicate this issue, you can actually use natural products. Just a little bit of baking soda and vinegar will help to eliminate the unnecessary fungus that perpetually grows in the mouth of those who suffer from oral thrush. Rinse your mouth with this mixture a couple times a day. It is completely safe and doesn't have to be swallowed in order to work the way that it is designed to.
