One of the scary things about STDs is they hardly show symptoms. When they do, the symptoms are too common to be attended to. They may show up as common cold, sore throat, blisters, sores, or even an eye infection. You would never imagine in your wildest dreams that you are infected with an STD!
In case of Syphilis disease, appearance of sores is the first sign. According to a study, sores appear about 21 days after being infected. In some people, it may take 90 days. They are painless at the onset. Most of the times, they go unnoticed.
Sores usually appear around or in the mouth, at the anus, or the genital area. In most of the cases, sores appear at the genital area, as Syphilis spreads through sexual contact. The infection can also show up as painless bumps or blisters.
In case you notice rash or sores at your genital area and you have had unprotected sex recently, you must visit STD clinic for a test.
3 Stages of Syphilis
Appearance of sores is the first stage of Syphilis. This is a contagious stage. Some people are infected, but show no sores. They can still spread the infection.
When Syphilis reaches the secondary stage, it may cause painful sores. The symptoms accompany fatigue and sore throat.
The third stage of Syphilis is dangerous. It can reach the heart and cause heart failure; it can paralyze or cause stroke.
Treatment
Syphilis is a curable disease. Doctors usually prescribe a course of antibiotics. Please follow the instructions of your doctor carefully to treat the disease completely. You must complete the course.
The doctor conducts a blood test to diagnose Syphilis disease. Patients with open sores are more likely to contract HIV. So the doctor also tests such patients for HIV.
Remember
When left untreated, Syphilis can spread to other body areas and cause destruction. It can cause mental and nervous disorders, blindness, and even death.
