&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What is syphilis?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.sg/syphilis&quot;&gt;Syphilis&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is an STD that can cause long-term complications if not treated correctly. Symptoms in adults are divided into stages. These stages are primary, secondary, latent, and late syphilis.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;h2 id=&quot;HwContentTitle&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Stages of Syphilis&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The symptoms of syphilis in adults can be divided into stages&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3 class=&quot;HwSubSectionTitle &quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Primary stage&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;During the primary stage, a sore (chancre) usually painless develops at the site where the bacteria enter the body. This commonly occurs within 3 weeks of exposure but can range from 10 to 90 days. A person is highly contagious during the primary stage.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;In men, a chancre often appears in the genital area, usually (but not always) on the penis. These sores are often painless.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;In women, chancres can develop on the outer genitals or the inner part of the vagina. A chancre may go unnoticed if it occurs inside the vagina or at the opening to the uterus (cervix) because the sores are usually painless and are not easily visible.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Swelling of the&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.uofmhealth.org/health-library/stl158122#stl158122-sec&quot; data-hwid=&quot;stl158122&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;HwLinkText&quot;&gt;lymph nodes&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;may occur near the area of the chancre.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A chancre may also occur in an area of the body other than the genitals.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The chancre lasts for 3 to 6 weeks, heals without treatment, and may leave a thin scar. But even though the chancre has healed, syphilis is still present and a person can still pass the infection to others.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;During the first (primary) stage of syphilis, you may notice a single sore, but there may be multiple sores.&amp;nbsp;Primary syphilis occurs 10-90 days after contact with an infected individual. It manifests mainly on the glans penis in males and on the vulva or cervix in females. Ten percent of syphilitic lesions are found on the anus, fingers, oropharynx, tongue, nipples, or other extragenital sites. Regional non-tender lymphadenopathy follows invasion.&amp;nbsp;The sore is the location where syphilis entered your body. The sore is usually firm, round, and painless. Because the sore is painless, it can easily go unnoticed. The sore lasts 3 to 8 weeks and heals regardless of whether or not you receive treatment. Even though the sore goes away, you must still receive treatment so your infection does not move to the secondary stage.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3 class=&quot;HwSubSectionTitle &quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;h3 class=&quot;HwSubSectionTitle &quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Secondary stage&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Secondary syphilis is characterized by a rash that appears from 2 to 8 weeks after the chancre develops and sometimes before it heals. Other symptoms may also occur, which means that the infection has spread throughout the body. A person is highly contagious during the secondary stage.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A rash often develops over the body and commonly includes the palms of the hands and the soles of the feet.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The rash usually consists of a reddish brown, small, solid, flat, or raised skin sore or sores that are less than&amp;nbsp;&lt;span class=&quot;Measurement&quot;&gt;2 cm (0.8 in.)&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;across. The rash may look like other, more common skin problems.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Small, open sores may be present on&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.uofmhealth.org/health-library/stm159621#stm159621-sec&quot; data-hwid=&quot;stm159621&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;HwLinkText&quot;&gt;mucous membranes&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;. The sores may contain pus, or moist sores that look like warts may be present (condyloma lata).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;In dark-skinned people the sores may be a lighter color than the surrounding skin.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The skin rash usually heals without scarring within 2 months. After healing, skin discoloration may develop. But even though the skin rash has healed, syphilis is still present, and a person can still pass the infection on to others.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When syphilis has spread throughout the body, the person may have:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A fever is usually less than&amp;nbsp;&lt;span class=&quot;Measurement&quot;&gt;101&amp;deg;F (38&amp;deg;C)&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A sore throat.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A vague feeling of weakness or discomfort throughout the body.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Weight loss.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Patchy hair loss, especially in the eyebrows, eyelashes, and scalp hair.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Swelling of the lymph nodes.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Nervous system symptoms of secondary syphilis, which can include neck stiffness, headaches, irritability, paralysis, unequal reflexes, and irregular pupils.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;During the secondary stage, you may have skin rashes and/or sores in your mouth, vagina, or anus (also called mucous membrane lesions). This stage usually starts with a rash on one or more areas of your body. The rash can show up when your primary sore is healing or several weeks after the sore has healed. The rash can look like rough, red, or reddish brown spots on the palms of your hands and/or the bottoms of your feet. The rash usually won&amp;rsquo;t itch, and it is sometimes so faint that you won&amp;rsquo;t notice it. Other symptoms you may have can include fever, swollen lymph glands, sore throat, patchy hair loss, headaches, weight loss, muscle aches, and fatigue (feeling very tired). The symptoms from this stage will go away whether or not you receive treatment. Without the right treatment, your infection will move to the latent and possibly late stages of syphilis.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3 class=&quot;HwSubSectionTitle &quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;h3 class=&quot;HwSubSectionTitle &quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Latent (hidden) stage&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If untreated, an infected person will progress to the latent (hidden) stage of syphilis. After the secondary-stage rash goes away, the person will not have any symptoms for a time (latent period). The latent period may be as brief as 1 year or range from 5 to 20 years.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Often, during this stage, an accurate diagnosis can only be made through blood testing, the person&#39;s history, or the birth of a child with&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.uofmhealth.org/health-library/hw195492#hw195492-sec&quot; data-hwid=&quot;hw195492&quot;&gt;congenital syphilis&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A person is contagious during the early part of the latent stage and may be contagious during the latent period when no symptoms are present.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3 class=&quot;HwSubSectionTitle &quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;h3 class=&quot;HwSubSectionTitle &quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Relapses of secondary syphilis&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;About 20 to 30 out of 100 people with syphilis have a relapse of the secondary stage of syphilis during the latent stage. A relapse means the person had passed through the second stage, had no symptoms, and then began to experience secondary-stage symptoms again. Relapses can occur several times.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When relapses no longer occur, a person is not contagious through contact. However, a woman in the latent stage of syphilis may still pass the disease on to her developing baby and may have a miscarriage, a stillbirth, or give birth to a baby infected with congenital syphilis.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3 class=&quot;HwSubSectionTitle &quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;h3 class=&quot;HwSubSectionTitle &quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Tertiary (late) stage&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is the most destructive stage of syphilis. If untreated, the tertiary stage may begin as early as 1 year after infection or at any time during a person&#39;s lifetime. A person may never experience this stage of the illness.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The symptoms of tertiary (late) syphilis depend on the complications that occur. Complications of this stage include:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Gummata, which are large sores inside the body or on the skin.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Cardiovascular syphilis, which affects the heart and blood vessels.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Neurosyphilis, which affects the nervous system.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
