How does the infection occur?
Candidal sweat rash is caused by an overgrowth of candida. Candida may overgrow and cause a problem when the condition of the skin changes i.e. the area becomes warmer or more moist than normal.
A key cause of a candidal overgrowth is sweating which is why it is more common in the summer months or amongst sporty people.
