Your mouth will hurt! You will get painful, red sores and sometimes have sores on the tongue that look like they have cottage cheese at the top.

Thrush is a yeast infection of the mouth.... you will know that you have thrust if you have white patches on your tongue and back of your throat. It will hurt to eat anything that is acidic. There are cheap ways to get rid of thrust.... one is salt water gargles, try eating yogurt with LIVE CULTURES (very important), this will kill back the yeast in your mouth. You can also go to the Doctors and get a mouthwash call swish and swallow. The first two are great ways to prevent thrush from happening. Usually you get thrush from antibiotic use or by having a low immune system (like after chemotherapy). The fastest way to get rid of it is to go see your doctor.
Hopes this helps!

Babies suffer from this allot. But so do adults.
If you look into you mouth and it's white in colour with pinky red blotches on your tongue, and it feels tender and dry, there's a good chance it's thrush.
You need to visit your doctor, they will prescribe you a tonic that you take every 4 hours, you swish it around your mouth to coat it and then swallow. The thrush will disappear after a few days.

Oral candidiasis or thrush is common in babies. It is caused by the same yeast that causes nappy rash. It looks like little white plaques inside the mouth which tend to not scrape off. The most common cause of thrush in babies is the yeast, Candida albicans although other species of yeast may cause it. This infection needs treatment available on prescription to get rid of it. Thrush may occur in older children and adults who are immunosupressed due to drugs used in medical treatment or infections.
You will hurt in your mouth and even throat and your tounge and inside of your mouth will be so white. You can take something in color and rake it over your tounge and it will be white thick stuff that comes off/ out of your mouth.

The most obvious indicator is that you will find random twigs and leaves in your mouth as it tries to build a nest.
The best treatment is probably to get in some kind of pest control. They're used to clearing out nests, and they would probably use some kind of chemical to make sure the thrush doesn't come back.
