Accepted Answer

Syphilis: Primary syphilis does include genital sores called chancres, but they are usually painless.  http://tinyurl.com/8fzkvwt  they look like large, round bug bites that are hard, and usually show up 10-90 days after exposure.  They also usually heal up within 6 weeks -- but if untreated, syphilis moves on to further stages.  Please see your doctor for any questions about sores on your scrotum.

Question 8

i had a bump on my penis and pus came out. its been a few days and it scabbed over but while washing the scab came off and now its a flat light colored spot. im worried about syphilis but its not wet like the pictures on the web its dry. help?

Accepted Answer

: Syphilis doesn't behave like this, and other STDs also are unlikely based on these symptoms. Probably it was a pimple or small infected cyst. However, if you are sexually active and possibly at risk for STDs, of course you should see a doctor or clinic and have standard STD testing. Good luck.

Question 9

does syphilis rash can be itchy?

Accepted Answer

It is notoriously: quite variable. Would imagine it can sometimes be itchy. Several good tests to see if one has it. The rash typically comes a bit late in the infection and the usual blood tests would definitely show it if it were present.

Question 10

how many days for the secondary syphilis rash to go away?

Accepted Answer

Usually 5-10 days: The rash sometimes becomes more prominent in the first 1-2 days after penicillin injection, but then improves rapidly. It should be clearly better in 3-4 days, mostly gone by a week, and completely gone by 10 days or so. See your doctor if you remain concerned about it.
