Yeast infections and angular cheilitis?

June 14, 2010 by

I have a yeast infection, which I presume I developed by taking antibiotics – one per day for four days, orally. Shortly after I took the antibiotics, I developed angular cheilitis. I have dry, cracked mouth corners with a little crusting. My tongue was yellowish white. My throat is kind of sore. And it’s a pretty bad yeast infection. I know that angular cheilitis is a form of oral thrush. Is it possible that I either
A) Touched my vagina, and then touched my mouth, and gotten angular cheilitis?
or
B) Gotten angular cheilitis / oral thrush by contact from the antibiotics to my mouth?

It also should be said that I was taking antibiotics for trichomoniasis, which I was diagnosed with about 2 weeks ago. I caught it from having sex with a straight, Black male, age 23. The sexual relationship went on unprotected, through April and May. I took the antibiotics wrong the first time, taking 1 per day for 4 days. I saw the doctor again today and took the correct medication, and was diagnosed with a yeast infection.

Can you transmit vaginal thrush to the mouth by the hand? If so, is that what happened to me?
