? recent unprotected sex. Syphilis can be diagnosed by microscopic examination of the lesion. Apparently you're awaiting confirmatory serological testing. In view of the microscopic findings, I recommend consulting a specialist in infectious diseases to determine whether treatment should be started before the confirmatory results are available in 2 weeks. Results usually are back in 7-10 days
