You can also get infected through oral sex. Syphilis develops in 3 stages - primary, secondary and tertiary syphilis. The incubation period is about three weeks to three months for the primary stage, seven to ten weeks for the secondary stage and several years for the tertiary stage. In primary syphilis, the infection can be transmitted to others through sexual contact. In the later stages, the infection is passed on through the blood, which means that the fetus can be infected.\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuicktest Syphilis test provides a quick answer and with a high probability of whether you are infected with Syphilis or not.\u003c\/strong\u003e Our test detects the Treponema pallidum antibody that is produced in the body to fight the syphilis infection.

Swollen lymph nodes in the groin may also occur.\u003c\/strong\u003e The sores are usually painless and between one and two centimeters in size, which means that they can sometimes be difficult to detect. Although the sores can heal on their own after two to eight weeks, this does not mean that you are free of infection. You are still carrying the infection and it is important that you receive treatment. Diagnosis is always made by a doctor.\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eSyphilis is classified in Sweden as a public health hazard according to the Communicable Disease Control Act.
