Thrush is the same as having a yeast infection.
Thrush, also known as candiasis, is a yeast which lives on the skin and is normally kept in check by harmless bacteria. If this yeast multiplies however, it can cause itching, swelling, soreness and discharge in both men and women. Women may experience a thick white discharge and pain when passing urine. Men may experience the same discharge in the penis and difficulty pulling back the foreskin. Thrush can be passed on when having sex with someone who is infected, but also if you wear too tight nylon or lycra clothes or if you are taking certain antibiotics. Sometimes the cause may be unclear however. Transmission can be prevented by using condoms during sex and by men washing underneath their foreskin. Treatment for thrush involves taking or applying anti fungal treatments. Thrush can reoccur, especially in women.
