Ways to Help Heal Yeast Infection

Garlic

Garlic is a known antibiotic and antifungal. You can use it internally by placing a clove on the affected area overnight to provide relief from yeast infections. Though there is no scientific evidence for this remedy, it can be a low-risk method to try. If you have sensitive skin, avoid using garlic because it might cause skin damage or burning. Also, vaginal cream with thyme and garlic might be effective in reducing yeast cells. [7]
