What Are The Symptoms Of Syphilitic Balanitis?

In january i found a ulcer in my inner foreskin but i also had balanitis so my doctor treated me for balanitis now the balanitis is gone and so is the ulcer only now in april i got a rash on my arms and inner legs and hands and feet. And a sore throat as well. The rash was very photosensitive but it seems to be going away now. However it also came and went. Other days more visable then others. Along with the sore throat i had what seemd to be little bumps or ulcers on my inner lip as well and my tonsils looked swollen too. Is this Syphilistic Balanitis ?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Balanoposthitis in Syphilis is a very rare phenomena. Ulcer genitals and rashes over body. You have to rule out Syphilis by appropriate blood test. What about your serologic test for syphilis? Based on that or by demonstration of the organism under dark ground microscope only we can confirm the diagnosis of syphilis. Along with Picture of these lesions along with serology reports, we can extend more about the possibility of the diagnosis of your problem.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
