When the body defense becomes weak because of weakness in the body or immune deficiency, the yeast causes infection in the mouth called oral thrush. The same yeast may cause infection in body folds, vagina, nails, etc. The common symptoms are white curd like patches in the mouth, on cheeks, and on tongue. If the infection spreads to esophagus, the condition becomes serious.
