What exactly is 'syphilis'? It turns out that its 'latency period' is so long, don't care about it after reading it

I believe many of you have heard of syphilis. I only know the general concept of syphilis, but I don't know the specifics. In fact, syphilis is a disease that mainly occurs in the genital area. If you are infected with syphilis, you will feel obvious pain when you defecate. Syphilis is mainly transmitted sexually. It can be said that unreading was very contagious in the early stage, and it had a great impact on the human body. And he also has a certain incubation period, and it is still very long, let's take a look together.

What is syphilis?

In fact, if you suffer from early syphilis, you can basically recover after about a year of treatment. Of course, there are many types of syphilis. And the treatment process is also very complicated. Of course, in the process of treatment, you may suffer some pain. Living conditions are better now, so we still have to avoid improper sexual behavior. The latent process of syphilis is also divided into three phases. Let's find out more about it.

primary syphilis

Generally speaking, the incubation period of primary syphilis is relatively short, and it will exist for about 2 to 4 weeks. People with these diseases may experience mild sores or lumps in the genitals. And there may be conditions such as cartilage. Therefore, if this phenomenon occurs, you must go to the hospital for examination in time. Some people may also have swollen lymph nodes. This is all possible.

secondary syphilis

The incubation period of secondary syphilis is relatively longer. There will be an incubation period of about one to two months, and if it is not treated in time, some skin diseases may appear. In severe cases, a purulent rash may also develop. At this time, its transmission and contagion are also very strong, and it may be easy to infect your significant other if you don't pay attention. At this time, timely treatment is the most important thing.

tertiary syphilis

Tertiary syphilis is very scary, and the incubation period is the longest, ranging from 2 to 3 years to as long as ten years. At this time, patients with syphilis are more dangerous. If it is serious, it will have a certain impact on cardiovascular and cerebrovascular, bones and nerves. There may also be general paralysis. This situation is more serious, and of course the cure rate is relatively low.
