Patient's question:
How is congenital syphilis treated? It's been a while since this child's condition, and I've been hesitant to give them medication. Please give me some advice from the doctor.Doctor's answer:
Hello, what the doctor said is very correct. Treatment should be started immediately. Penicillin has almost no effect on children, and it can no longer be delayed. (TPPA: positive, RPR: positive should be tested for RPR, TPPA titer) It can be confirmed that there is congenital syphilis: it is divided into early and late congenital syphilis. Your son belongs to early congenital syphilis. Treatment should be timely, the earlier the treatment, the better the effect. Early syphilis, with sufficient and adequate treatment, about 90% of patients can achieve the goal of complete cure.
