structural processes
usually long standing and unchanging
Slow to Develop
often found in young patients

Responds to steroids
itching/pain- allergy or autoimmune
more seen in women… classic signs of inflammation(shares with infectious processes)
reactive process
Should resolve when causative agent goes away
may mimic neoplasm
metabolic process
are usually a systemic condition
maybe Hormonal, Nutritional or Genetic

how is candidiasis treated
Antifungals: nystatin clotrimazole ketoconazole fluconazole
