Can you get candida and ringworm

[strawberry]

I'm a bit worried and wanted to ask for help from other forum users. Can you get both candida and ringworm at the same time? I have been doing some research and it seems that both are infections caused by different types of fungi, so I'm not sure if it's possible to get both of them together. I would really appreciate any help or advice on this topic as I have never experienced this before.

Candida and Ringworm:

Candida Infection

Candida is a type of yeast found naturally in the human body. In some cases, an overgrowth of Candida can occur, leading to an infection. Symptoms of a Candida infection can include itching, redness, and a thick, white discharge from the vagina or penis. Some people may also experience a burning sensation in the mouth or throat. Treatment of a Candida infection typically involves antifungal medications.

It is characterized by a red, scaly, and circular rash that can appear anywhere on the body. Treatment of ringworm typically involves antifungal medications and keeping the affected area clean and dry.
