SYPHILIS
Syphilis is a sexually transmitted disease (STD). Syphilis can affect men, women and infants.
Syphilis is dangerous, but it is easily treated if it is diagnosed early. If left untreated, it can cause blindness, insanity, paralysis, heart disease or death. Symptoms may appear 10-90 days after exposure. Symptoms of syphilis are divided into four stages:
Stage One: The main symptoms in this stage are: swelling of the glands and the appearance of chancres, which are usually seen on genitals, the mouth or anus. Chancres are very infectious. Chancres in women may not be noticed because they may occur inside the vagina. Chancres are not painful.
Stage Two: After the chancre is gone, a rash appears on the hands and feet. The lymph glands swell, the throat may be sore, patches appear in the mouth. There may be bumps around the genitals and the mouth. The bumps are very infectious. Other symptoms are: hair loss, loss of appetite, nausea, joint or bone pain.
Stage Three: This latent stage may last many years. Some people may have lesions in bones, skin, nervous tissue and the heart. It is not infectious stage.
Stage Four: Heart problems, skin rashes, bone and joint pain develop. There are many other problems such as insanity, slurred speech, senility or paralysis. If left untreated syphilis may cause death.
A pregnant woman with syphilis can infect her unborn child. She may experience miscarriage, stillbirth or give birth to a child with birth defects: blindness, brain damage or other problems with growth and development.
Those who have number of sexual partners and unprotected sex have a greater risk to be infected by syphilis. The use of condoms can prevent the spread of syphilis. Avoiding multiple sexual partners is also helpful.
Syphilis is diagnosed on fluid from chancres at the first stage. At the three later stages a blood test is needed to detect the disease.
Syphilis is treated with penicillin. Syphilis is curable if treated in time. It is very important to take all the medications the physician prescribes.
