Syphilis facial symptoms?

Most of the patients had symptoms within 4 years after infection and were highly infectious; Third stage syphilis, also known as late syphilis, is manifested after 4 years of infection and is generally non infectious. Recessive syphilis refers to those who have no clinical symptoms except positive serum reaction after infection.

It can also be divided into early stage and late stage according to 4 years after infection. Recessive syphilis can be asymptomatic for life, but there are also early asymptomatic and late onset. Besides soft tissue, Treponema pallidum can also involve maxillofacial bone and periosteum. Hard palate was the most common, followed by alveolar process and nasal septum of maxillary incisors. Occasionally, it can be seen in the zygoma and mandibular angle.

Gum like swelling of the palate is usually located in the midline of the palate (sometimes primary in the nasal septum), which is nodular or diffuse. The infiltrating foci of gum like swelling softened quickly and ulcerated. At the beginning of the ulcer, the bottom of the ulcer was bone. Later, the bone was necrotic. After the dead bone fell off, the palate perforation was left, and the oral cavity and nasal cavity communication occurred. Later, the edge of the perforation gradually flattened, and the nasal mucosa was connected with the palatal mucosa to form scar.
