I'll second Razhie. Over scrubbing with scented shower gels, body sprays and stuff can irritate and spark it off. So can tight shorts in hot weather. Any of this apply? Relax, they're easily fixed but like she said, get it sorted and nothing too intimate till you do. Blokes CAN get them, and it's no fun for us either. If any of the above do apply, you don't have to do plaster yourself with strong scents down there. Pleasantly clean but natural scent works for most guys!

It's very, VERY unlikely that he has a yeast infection in his mouth, and didn't know about it.
Possible, yes. But exceedingly unlikely.
It's far more likely you developed a yeast infection spontaneously. Yeast infections can be 'caught' but they don't necessarily need to be. They can't just 'happen'.
If you haven't had one before, go to a doctor to make sure it is in fact a yeast infection.
If you are familiar with them and certain that is what it is, pick up a remedy at a drugstore and don't let your partner down there with fingers or tongue until you've finished the entire treatment.
