What is Understanding Syphilis: Symptoms and Treatment about?
Syphilis is caused by the spirochete Treponema pallidum. It has three stages - primary, secondary, and latent. The primary stage involves a chancre sore which can spread via blood or lymph systems. Left untreated, it can cause damage to multiple organs in the latent stage. Syphilis is diagnosed via blood tests or microscopic examination of sores, and treated with penicillin. Prevention involves safe sex practices and syphilis control programs aim to expand screening and treatment.
