So what are the treatments? There are a couple of remedies, natural ones and over the counter medication.

A good over antifungal the counter treatment is Monistat. The doctor told Jason to use apply it twice a day to the affected area. He should continue to do that for at least a week. Of course, the dotcor did not allow any sexual contact to his girlfriend until she and Jason are totally free of the symptoms.
