Question

Symptoms for syphilis often disappear between stages leading patients to believe that they are not at risk for further damage.

Answer 1

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Syphilis is a sexually transmitted infection caused by a bacterium. It is usually spread after people have unprotected sex (any kind of sex).

The first symptoms of syphilis include having open, wound like sores around the mouth and the genitals areas. They are usually pain free but very unpleasant and they tend to heal on their own. During a later stage of this disease they symptoms may become latent and even disappear for months or years. The no visible symptoms stage is very dangerous one, as the bacterium can damage the internal organs in the body, including the brain.

Syphilis is treated with antibiotics.
