Can six weeks without symptoms rule out syphilis?
Patients with syphilis need to be treated as soon as possible, so as not to delay the disease. Syphilis can be divided into recessive syphilis, primary syphilis, secondary syphilis and tertiary syphilis according to the symptoms of patients. The patient's physical condition appears more, which means that the disease is serious, so early treatment is the first step.
At present, penicillin is a better drug for the treatment of syphilis, but it needs to be used under the guidance of doctors, and the effect will be much better if the treatment course is implemented according to the doctor's advice. After receiving standard treatment, patients need to go to the hospital regularly for reexamination, generally three months after treatment.
The main review items of patients are RPR and TPPA. The changes of patients' condition can be observed according to the changes of RPR indicators. If the condition shows obvious signs of improvement and the physical symptoms are gradually alleviated, they can choose to review half a year to one year to monitor the disease at any time.
matters needing attention
It should be noted that if the patient's examination result is negative, it means that the patient's condition is improved, but in order to be diagnosed and completely cured, the patient needs to be reexamined once a year, and the patients who have been tested negative for two consecutive times can indicate that they have been cured.
