Nashville, United States - October 3, 2020 /PressCable/ —

Syphilis is a sexually transmitted infection that can thoroughly affect the life of people, including their children.

Syphilis is an infection by the bacteria Treponema pallidum. Most people acquire this disease through sexual intercourse of whatever type (including oral, anal, etc.) without protection. So, it is a sexually transmitted disease. However, suppose a female patient has it. In that case, she can transmit it to their newborn causing further problems in its healthy development.

Moreover, this infection is divided into stages. They have a duration of approximately ten years, accounting for primary, secondary, latent, and tertiary stages. Doctors use the term “early syphilis” for referring to active disease, acquired sexually with less than one year of duration. As you can see, timing is very important regarding this infection.

It is not an odd situation for doctors to confuse syphilis’ symptoms. In light of that, syphilis’ symptoms often resemble the ones of other infections. Nonetheless, some characteristics of how the illness progresses over time are classical from syphilis. Of course, those symptoms have a close relationship with the stages of the disease. Therefore, as time passes and the disease progress, so are going to change the symptoms.

The scientific evidence suggests that people without treatment from 15 to 40% of them, in the long run, will develop tertiary syphilis. This situation is not good. The tertiary stage is devastating for the body, causing severe widespread symptoms, including heart, brain, and skin issues. Besides, alongside impairing the everyday lifestyle of the patient, it could prompt death.

Notably, a mother’s risk of passing it to their child is the highest within the primary and secondary stages and possible in early latent syphilis. For regular people to transmit it with sexual intercourse is within the first one or two years after they got the infection.

This syphilis symptoms checker gathers the most important signs, symptoms, and risk factors for the disease.

Thankfully, since the existence of antibiotics, syphilis infections have been declining and causing fewer complications. However, it still is a public health problem. This is even more accurate for high-risk populations in acquiring the infection, such as female sex workers and their male clients or males who have sex with males.

Please keep in mind that for diagnosing this disease, a doctor must run some tests. Therefore, this tool does not represent a diagnosis or whatsoever. The tool has questions for identifying risk factors, symptoms, and signs in association with syphilis.

So, this syphilis symptoms checker will tell anyone who uses it the likelihood that their symptoms are because of syphilis. Also, it could be positive if the person has substantial risk factors for the disease.

Remember that this disease is easily treatable in most cases. Hence, there is no excuse for being exposed to the awful complications this infection can have for people. Suppose it is a female, for her baby too. Besides, This tool is free to use and would only take a few minutes.
