Anyone can get yeast infections. Babies get them a lot and it looks like bad diaper rash that eats the skin.

Yes. However, they rarely get them in their genitals. Symptoms that may indicate a yeast infection in women may be something more serious in men. Yeast infections in men typically infect the skin elsewhere-- especially in any skin fold. They can also infect areas in contact with protective sports equipment.
