A member asked:
Can you have chancroid for a year and not know it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: Chancroid causes the body to produce painful genital ulcers within a short period of time. You would know if something was wrong down there. The incubation period is usually a day to a couple of weeks.
