Hello,

Syphilis is a venereal disease which spread due to unsafe sex. Penicillin is the drug of choice and your lesions are responding to it too.

Take full treatment course, mantainence perineal hygiene, use barrier methods and don't indulge in unsafe sex.

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

Take care
