When Do Symptoms Of Syphilis And Chlamydia Start Showing?

Hi...My partner (male) just informed me that he has tested reactive to syphilis and chlamydia and was given two shots in his butt. He s had some unexplained bumps on his body (like small raised areas) which I assume is syphilis related. My question is that its been 4 1/2 months that we ve been dating exclusively. Is it possible for these stds to take 4 1/2 months to show up or has he been lying to me. I know I have been exclusive.

hi...
chlamydia is mostlu dont show any symptoms.. diagnosed by laboratory test like blood cultute or antibody detection..tratment is azythromycine or doxycycline for single shot or 7 days.

syphiliis shows its symptoms after 3-4 week of being infected.. mostly present as painless sore areaand pain some times in groin..diagnosed by blood and urine tests..treatment with penicillin is best..in first and second stage syphilis has more chances to infect others..

so..do your diagnostic work up now...and if presenr take treatment..
thank you
