Health emergency response tips (HERT) 3
Syphilis:
Syphilis is a common and dangerous disease that is spread from person to person through sexual contact.
SIGNS/SYMPTOMS
1. The first sign is usually a sore, called a CHANCRE. It appears 2 to 5 weeks after sexual contact with a person who is infected. The chancre may look like a pimple, a blister or an open sore. It usually appears in the ge***al area of the man or woman or less commonly on the lips, fingers, a**s or mouth. This sore is full of germs, which are easily passed on to another person.
N:B: this sore is usually painless and if it is inside the va**na, a woman may not know she has it, but she can easily infect other persons.
2. The sore only lasts a few days and then goes away by itself without treatment, but the disease continues spreading through the body.
3. Weeks or months later, there may be sore throat, mild fever, mouth sores or swollen joints, painful rash or pimples all over the body, ring shaped welts (like hives), an itchy rash on the hands or feet.
Without adequate treatment, syphilis can invade other parts of the body causing heart disease, paralysis, insanity and many other problems.
