What is Syphilis?
Syphilis is a bacterial infection caused by Treponema pallidum and is transmitted primarily through sexual contact. It progresses in stages — primary, secondary, latent, and tertiary — and can affect multiple organs if not treated in time.
Symptoms vary depending on the stage, but may include:
- Painless sore (chancre) at the site of infection
- Skin rash on the palms, soles, or body
- Fatigue, fever, swollen lymph nodes
- Long-term complications involving the heart, brain, and nerves (tertiary stage)
Syphilis is a treatable STI that requires prompt diagnosis and treatment — preventing serious long-term complications and reducing the risk of transmission to others.
How Is Syphilis Diagnosed?
At Dr Chong Clinic, our doctors may recommend the following diagnostic steps:
- Consultation and review of symptoms or exposure history
- Blood tests (e.g. VDRL, TPHA) for detecting syphilis antibodies
- Swab or lesion testing if visible sores are present
- Optional screening for other STIs as part of a full sexual health assessment
Testing is quick, confidential, and accurate, and results are typically available within a few days.
