I didn't have that problem after surgery but I have had problems with yeast.  Did they give you anything for it?
For you stomach you can buy over the counter anti fungals, like for athlete's foot or you can use the cream that you get for yeast infections.
When my babies had yeast infections in their mouth I used gentian violet.  You can buy it at most pharmacies.  It works great but it is a purple dye and it's very messy and stains so you may look funny for a bit.  When I used it on my babies I always got funny looks when i took them out with their purple mouths.

Yeast in your mouth is usually thrush. I use a toothpaste and mouthwash that keeps it at bay. You can message me if you want the info.
Yeast on your belly is treatable with OTC meds or you can use Apple cider vinegar with the mother or other natural remedies.
Document your infections with pics so later down the road your insurance may cover skin removal.
Also, I've found eating a diet low in yeast causing (candita) foods helps a lot.

 It's caused by the post op antibiotics, which kill all the good bacteria (which control the fungus). 

I had very bad Thrush in my mouth and throat and had to gargle with an RX med three times a day for a week. That seemed to get things under control.
 Don't ask me how we lost to Baylor.  I can't figure it Out either!

I get yeast rashes under my stomach folds.  My primary prescribed an anti-fungal cream for me to use that has helped.  I also wash the area with Cetaphil and make sure it's kept very dry.

And definitely talk about it with your doctor so it can be documented.  Insurance just might cover it.
