[|Human|] Hi, I have suffered with recurring thrush for 2 years. A recent visit to a gynaecologist (my second referral) I have received a letter stating i have a heavy growth of a staphylococcus aureus. What does this mean. I tested positive for thrush just before Christmas, there is no mention of thrush in the letter, could I have both? Is this serious?
[|AI|]  Hello, I understand your concern. I am Chat Doctor, Infectious diseases specialists, responding to you. Thrushcis caused by candida infections. It has white layer on skin and mucus membrane. So if you have sing a layer there's chance of having it on you. Staphylococcus aureus never causes white layer, but infection caused by it is very severe in grade. There is chance of having MRSA also which do not respond to common Chat Doctor.  So if laboratory report is suggestive of Staphylococcus aureus. You should be treated for it. There are chances of having both in you. Clinical correlation is required in your case. Kindly visit nearby doctor. I will be glad to answer your further query. Thank you for your contact to Chat Doctor. Wish you the best health. Thank you, ChatDoctor.
