Syphilis is a kind of venereal disease, which makes people very worried. My colleagues told me that my lower body is very comfortable these days, so I was worried that I was suffering from syphilis, so I went to the hospital to have an examination, and told me that the examination was negative. Don't worry too much. Now let's understand what syphilis test negative means.

First: the predilection sites of syphilis are penis, glans, coronal sulcus, prepuce, urethral orifice; labia, clitoris, cervix; anus, anal canal, etc. Hard chancre is characterized by 7-60 days after TP infection. Most patients have single, painless, itchless, round or oval ulcer with clear boundary, which is higher than the skin surface. The ulcer surface is clean, and there are many secretions of secondary infection. There is cartilage like hardness when touching. The duration was 4-6 weeks, and it was self-healing.

Second: Treponema pallidum specific antigen serum test: live or dead Treponema pallidum or its components are used to test anti Treponema antibody. The tests belonging to this category include fluorescent Treponema absorption test FTA-ABS; Treponema pallidum hemagglutination test TPHA: this kind of test has strong specificity and can be used as evidence test, but it can not be used to observe curative effect and judge recurrence and reinfection.
