obat sipilis resep dokter __ What’s up with syphilis?

We've seen a dramatic increase in infectious syphilis over the past 12 years in Toronto. Today the number of new syphilis cases is eighteen times higher than in 2001.

Most (97%) of these cases of infectious syphilis have been among men. Over 80% of these have been among gay and bisexual men. And, almost 1/2 of cases in 2010 were among men who were also HIV-positive. obat sipilis resep dokter

It's important to get tested - and treated - as syphilis is much easier than HIV to get or pass on. If you are HIV-positive, syphilis can make you very sick, very quickly. Syphilis is here. And it’s not nice. If you get syphilis, it can be very serious. But there are things you can do to protect yourself and others. What is syphilis?

Syphilis is a sexually transmitted infection (STI) that is caused by bacteria. It is easily transmitted during sexual activity. It goes through three different stages after infection, with different symptoms at each stage. How is syphilis spread?

It’s spread when your skin -- especially mucous membranes like those found in your mouth, throat, penis, ass, frontal genital area (for trans guys) and the top inside of your nose -- comes into direct contact with syphilis sores or rashes. It can be spread through oral sex (sucking or getting sucked), anal sex (fucking or getting fucked), frontal/vaginal sex, and any other sexual activities that may involve contact with syphilis sores, or with semen (cum) blood or frontal/vaginal fluids.

Sharing injection, smoking and/or snorting drug use equipment, can also pass syphilis from one person to another. Trans guys should take note that sharing needles to inject hormones is also considered a high risk activity. How do I know if I have syphilis?

You may have syphilis and not know it. While some people develop visible symptoms of syphilis infection, others don’t. Depending on where you are having sex, you might not be able to see if your sex partner has symptoms of syphilis. Symptoms or not, if you have syphilis you can still get very sick and give syphilis to others. obat sipilis

Stages of syphilis infection:

About three weeks (any where from 10 – 90 days) after you have sex with someone who has syphilis, you may develop a painless sore (called a ‘chancre’) on your penis, near your anus (ass, bum), in your throat, or for trans guys, the frontal genital area. You may or may not notice that you have a chancre. The sore may go away by itself after 3-6 weeks; however you are still infected with syphilis. It’s very easy to pass on syphilis to someone at this stage of infection. This is referred to as the "primary" stage. Four to 10 weeks after the chancre appears, you may notice a red rash on your chest, palms, genitals, or the soles of your feet. You might also have muscle and joint pain, fever and patchy hair loss. These symptoms may also disappear without treatment, but you can still pass on syphilis to sexual partners. This is referred to as the "secondary" stage.

If syphilis isn’t treated in the secondary stage you can still pass it on to sex or drug partners for a year from the time you got syphilis, even though you don’t have any symptoms. This is referred to as the “early latent” stage.

Finally, there is a long period without any symptoms. However, the syphilis bacteria continue to live in your body and can cause serious damage to your heart, brain, eyes and bones. It may take from 10 to 30 years before this damage is seen but can occur much earlier if you also have HIV. Fortunately, syphilis can be detected and treated before it reaches this stage. This stage is referred to as the “late” or “tertiary” stage. It is less likely that you will pass on syphilis to someone at this stage of infection. Of great concern has been the appearance of cases of tertiary syphilis among those who are HIV-positive, within a very short period of time (six months after infection with syphilis, as opposed to 10 to 30 years).

Undiagnosed syphilis is a lifetime infection and if ignored, has very serious outcomes. obat sipilis resep dokter
