How Long Post Treatment Will Symptoms Of Secondary Syphilis Last?
Hello. I was diagnosed with secondary syphilis about a week ago. I was given a shot of penicillin. However, my symptoms have not improved. As a matter of fact, they ve gotten worse. How long after being treated will the symptoms go away?? Aloso, is there a chance I was misdiagnosed? Because the doctor did not take a blood test. He diagnosed me based on a visual exam of my arms.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, antibiotic is not the symptomatic medicine but it is the curative medicine for the symptoms of disease you have to taken the symptomatic medicine, it is not being stated what kind of symptoms you have, second chances of wrong diagnosis could be there, hope this information helps.
