    AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome) is a transmissible disease of the immune system caused by the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). HIV slowly attacks and destroys the immune system, leaving an individual vulnerable to a variety of other infections and certain malignancies that eventually cause death.

    HIV is primarily a sexually transmitted disease (STD), transmitted by heterosexual and homosexual practices: anal, vaginal, and oral sex. It can also be transmitted through blood contact or from mother to child during pregnancy, childbirth, or breastfeeding.

    There is no cure for HIV infection. However, with access to effective HIV prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and care, including for opportunistic infections, HIV infection has become a manageable chronic health condition, enabling people living with HIV to lead long and healthy lives.

    Syphilis can be diagnosed by testing samples of blood. Blood tests(VDRL) can confirm the presence of antibodies that the body produces to fight infection. The antibodies to the syphilis-causing bacteria remain in your body for years, so the test can be used to determine a current or past infection.Read more

    Syphilis can be diagnosed by testing samples of blood. Blood tests(VDRL) can confirm the presence of antibodies that the body produces to fight infection. The antibodies to the syphilis-causing bacteria remain in your body for years, so the test can be used to determine a current or past infection.

    The diagnosis of syphilis may also involve dark-field microscopy of skin lesions but most often requires screening with a nontreponemal test and confirmation with a treponemal-specific test.

    Syphilis is a sexually transmitted infection (STI) that can cause serious health problems without treatment. It develops in four stages: primary, secondary, latent, and tertiary.

    1. In the primary stage, painless sores called chancres appear at the site of infection (mouth, anus, rectum, vagina, or penis). The sores heal on their own after 3 to 6 weeks, but you can still spread syphilis.

    2. In the secondary stage, symptoms include a rough red or reddish-brown rash on the palms of hands and soles of feet, swollen lymph nodes, fever, sore throat, patchy hair loss, headaches, and body aches, and extreme tiredness (fatigue). These symptoms will go away even if you don’t get treated. But if you’re not treated, your infection will get worse.

    3. During the latent stage, the syphilis bacteria are still alive in your body, but you have no signs or symptoms of the infection. You’re not contagious during this stage, but syphilis may still affect your heart, brain, nerves, bones, and other parts of your body. This phase can last for years.

    4. The tertiary (late) stage begins when symptoms from the secondary stage disappear. Syphilis isn’t contagious at this point, but the infection has started to affect your organs. This can lead to death. Symptoms of tertiary syphilis may include problems controlling muscle movements, numbness, vision problems (you may start going blind), and dementia.

The disease starts as a painless sore, typically on the genitals, rectum, or mouth. Syphilis spreads from person to person via skin or mucous membrane contact with these sores.

    It may also be transmitted from mother to baby during pregnancy or when giving birth, resulting in congenital syphilis.

    Syphilis is a sexually transmitted infection (STI) caused by the bacterium Treponema pallidum subspecies pallidum. It is usually spread by sexual contact and can cause serious health problems if left untreated. The disease starts as a painless sore, typically on the genitals, rectum, or mouth. Syphilis spreads from person to person via skin or mucous membrane contact with these sores.

    The signs and symptoms of syphilis vary depending on which of the four stages it presents (primary, secondary, latent, and tertiary). The primary stage classically presents with a single chancre (a firm, painless, non-itchy skin ulceration) though there may be multiple sores. In secondary syphilis, a diffuse rash occurs, which frequently involves the palms of the hands and soles of the feet. There may also be sores in the mouth or vagina. In latent syphilis, which can last for years, there are few or no symptoms. In tertiary syphilis, there are gummas (soft, non-cancerous growths), neurological problems, or heart symptoms.
