  • How to Swim Safely With a Yeast Infection

    If you have a yeast infection, you can still swim safely by wearing breathable, quick-drying swimwear and changing out of it promptly after. Apply a water-resistant barrier cream before swimming to protect your skin.

    Shower with gentle cleanser before and after your swim to remove irritants. Avoid hot tubs since heat and moisture worsen infections. Don’t swim if symptoms worsen, and keep your skin dry and clean.
