Is it syphilis??
Brief Answer:
Not syphilis
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I can see white, raised bumps at the base of the shaft of the penis. They seem to like those of genital Molluscum contagiosum or Genital warts.
Genital Molluscum and Genital Warts are viral STDs that are different from syphilis. Nevertheless, you should screen yourself for all STDs like syphilis, HIV, genital herpes, gonorrhoea and chlamydia.
Hope I have answered your query.
