Syphilis is a chronic venereal disease, striking the skin, mucous membranes, bones, nervous system and internal organs. the causative agent of this disease is Treponema pallidum, which is unstable in the environment. When exposed to soap solutions, alcohols, and temperatures above 48 degrees it instantly dies.

The Main ways of infection with syphilis: sexual, transfusion, intrauterine, rarely home.

There are four periods of the disease. Syphilis, the signs of which raznoobrazny, has differences at each stage of the disease.

Called the Incubation period from time of infection until the first clinical signs of the disease, the main of which is the appearance of the chancre. Its duration is 30 days. It can be increased by the holding of antibiotic therapy for any other infectious diseases. The patient in this period is not contagious to others.

 

The Formation of ulcers with rounded, smooth edges to the point of entry of Treponema pallidum characterizes primary syphilis. The signs of the disease at this stage are limited to the appearance only of that entity, which is called a chancre. It is painless, so they often go unnoticed. Syphilis in this stage is highly contagious, as in the hard chancre is a large number of infectious diseases.

After About five weeks, the ulcer disappears, and in its place there is scar tissue. These changes can not be taken at the end of the disease. Further, the Treponema gets into nearby lymph nodes (inguinal), and then the blood spreads throughout the body. Lymph nodes that were affected by the causative agent of the disease, increase in size, acquire photoelasticity consistency, but they are painless and movable.
