Can cervical hypertrophy cause syphilis?

First: sexual contact. About 90% of syphilis patients are infected by sexual contact. Untreated patients are the most infectious within one year after infection. With the extension of time, the infectivity becomes smaller and smaller. After 4 years of infection, there is no infectivity through sexual contact.

Second: fetal transmission. Pregnant women with syphilis can transmit syphilis through the placenta. Infection usually occurs after 4 months of pregnancy. Placental infection occurs mainly in the early syphilis of pregnant women, and less in the late syphilis. Fetal syphilis patients, pregnant without adequate treatment, can also be transmitted to their children, the so-called third generation syphilis, but very rare. When the fetus is delivered, syphilis is transmitted through the birth canal, which is not fetal syphilis.

Third: non sexual contact. A small number of patients can be infected by direct non sexual contact with the skin and mucous membrane of syphilis patients. Such as ordinary kissing, handshake, gynecological examination, breast-feeding, etc.

matters needing attention

A few hours after infection, Treponema pallidum propagated along the lymphatic vessels to the lymph nodes. One to two weeks later, the nearby lymph nodes began to swell, and the inguinal lymph nodes were the most common. It is characterized by hard, no fusion, no suppuration, no redness, swelling, heat and pain on the surface. Treponema pallidum was often positive in lymph node biopsy. The rate of lymphadenopathy subsided more slowly than that of chancre.
