What’s syphilis?
Syphilis is a type of infection that spreads through sex. It starts with a small sore around private parts or in the mouth. Even if you don’t see any sores, you can still spread it to others. There are other infections like chlamydia and gonorrhea that can look like syphilis, but they are caused by different bacteria and may require other testing and/or treatment.
What are the symptoms of syphilis?
Infected people may experience painless ulcers, sores, vaginal discharge or wart-like growths on genitals, rectum, or mouth. People may also experience rashes, small bumps or ulcers on their skin, palms, or soles. Additional common symptoms include fatigue, itching, sore throat, swollen lymph nodes, weight loss, or rectal lining inflammation.
What puts me at risk for syphilis?
Risk of syphilis results from unprotected sexual contact with one or multiple partners who is/are currently infected with syphilis. It is possible for a person to be infected with syphilis without having symptoms (i.e., “asymptomatic”) and still transmit the infection to another.
