Patient's question:
Last year during the pre-marital health check-up, a thorough examination showed nothing. In the early stages of pregnancy, a blood test also showed nothing. Today, I went to the hospital to prepare for a cesarean section and had a blood test. The doctor said it was suspected to be syphilis. What's going on?Doctor's answer:
Syphilis testing is performed using a special colloidal gold test. If it is suspected to be positive, you can go to the disease control center for diagnosis. This test may sometimes have fluctuations. Your previous test results were normal. It could be a misdiagnosis. It is recommended that you go to the disease control center for a retest. There are many methods for treating the disease, but since the patient's condition is different, the treatment methods will also vary. Therefore, it is necessary for patients to go to a professional institution for a detailed examination as soon as possible to receive targeted treatment.
