Last time I went to the hospital for examination, the doctor told me that I had become secondary syphilis. In order to prevent this situation, I'd like to introduce how long the incubation period of syphilis is.

How long does syphilis incubation period have

First of all: the symptoms of latent period of syphilis is not obvious. The clinical manifestations of latent period of primary syphilis are hard chancre and inguinal lymphadenopathy. The main symptoms of latent period of secondary syphilis were skin damage and mucosal damage. In addition to skin and mucous membrane damage, the symptoms of latent period of third stage syphilis.

Secondly: the incubation period of syphilis is about 9 to 90 days. When the patient is infected with syphilis, the clinical serum reaction is positive at this time, and the symptoms temporarily fade. This stage is called the incubation period of syphilis. Some patients take antibiotics at the time of infection, so the onset will be delayed.

Finally: of course, patients with strong resistance, the onset will be later. Is also a very small number of patients to six months or even years after the emergence of secondary syphilis, three syphilis latent symptoms.

According to the survey, about 2% - 5% of syphilis patients have paralytic dementia. Scholars believe that the number of dementia due to syphilis has a positive proportion with syphilis patients. The incubation period of the disease is long, generally between 5-25 years, but most of them are 10-20 years.
