Thanks for your query at HCM!

You are suffering from syphilis which is a sexually transmitted disease.
VDRL 1:32 means reactive and positive for test. It is a test with good sensitivity.
TPHA (Treponema Pallidum haemagglunination Test) is test which is quite specific test to confirm diagnosis.
In your case you are having syphilis.
Kindly describe your symptoms?

Happy to take more queries! You can also write a review for me. If you would like some more information, I will be happy to provide.
Take care!
