You need to go to the doctor!!! It sounds like maybe your immune system is overwhelmed. Your immune system will fight stuff off for as long as it can, but if it can't, then you could wind up in serious trouble. You probably have something else going on, and the infections you can see are secondary.
If for some reason you can't go to the doctor or if you have to wait a day or so, here's some stuff to try:
1-Get rid of whatever is under your fingernail. Try putting antibiotic ointment on it, and making sure that it stays clean. I don't know why your hands are always wet, but try wearing gloves that have that fabric liner if you can while your hands are in water. When you take the gloves off, make sure to put them in a place where the lining will dry out before you use them again. (They will get moisture from sweat)
2-Try drinking a lot of water and cranberry juice for the bladder infection. Most bladder infections are caused by a bacteria that sticks to the walls of your "plumbing", and drinking cranberry juice makes it not be able to stick.
3-For your cold, try extra vitamin c and zinc, which might help you get over it sooner.
4- Yeast infection- try an otc remedy.
I can't stress enough how important it is for you to see a doctor!!

what u have is a major yeast infection. heres some tips-
eat lots of yogurt (preferrably without sugar)
avoid sugar
avoid foods with yeast (bread)
for the finger nail, u can put Tea Tree Oil on it or anything for a fungus
Take over the the counter medicine for the yeast infection...pills work good, and so does the creams
take lots of vitamin C
and drink sage tea
(for the cold)
cranberry pills for the bladder infection
Ur immune system can shut down with so many infections but what u need to work on is avoid encouraging the infection from growing. Thats why your diet is so important right now. Gl! hope u feel better

Rinse your mouth with saltwater. Get a glass and put about a teaspoon or two of salt and then put in some water and mix it up and sip it and rinse your mouth out. It may sting a little but it helps a ton! Good luck, I hope you feel better! If that doesn't work then visit the dentist. It might have something to do with your infected teeth.

no, not if you take care of those problems properly. Hope you feel better, maybe you should use gloves for your hands?
