What's the difference between the two? And are there different treatments to treat it? Or does one cream/tablet treat both?

Unfortunately the two are different and require different medicines to treat.

You can also get both at the same time!

Then go back and get the thrush medicine to treat that (or buy it over counter but it's prices)!!
