Hi,

I can understand your concern for syphilis.

The important things to tell you regarding syphilis:

In most of the cases of syphilis these patients develop one or more sores which are small painless ulcers. These sores are on the genitals or in or around the mouth somewhere between 10-90 days.

In secondary stage of syphilis which begins within six weeks to six months after exposure. Those persons who have secondary syphilis experience a rosy rash typically on the palms of the hands and soles of the feet.

You can make out that you do not have such kind of lesions so just relax for the possibility of syphilis.

Take care.
