A mother has nipple and ductal yeast. Her baby's physician scraped the
baby's very white tongue and looked at it under a microscope and said that
it wasn't yeast and, therefore, will not treat for thrush.
Am I mistaken in believing that yeast must be first cultured before it will
grow yeast spores and be identified under a microscope? If we could
identify it with just a scraping and peek, we wouldn't have so much
question of yeast or not yeast.
What say you?
