What are the symptoms of syphilis heart disease?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I want to know what are the symptoms of syphilis heart disease? I'm living a very painful life now, and I hope the doctor can guide me. Now, viral heart disease has already tortured me to the point of feeling like I'm not even living. I don't know what to do, please tell me, what should I do? Thank you.

Doctor's answer:

Syphilitic heart disease is a late-stage syphilis condition where the Treponema pallidum enters the aorta, causing inflammation of the aorta. Unaware of coronary artery stenosis, it may lead to recurrent shortness of breath or lower limb edema, impairing heart function. For syphilitic heart disease, antiviral treatment should be adopted, and it is recommended to seek systematic treatment from the neurology department. In gyms, preventive measures and attention should be implemented to reduce the spread of syphilis infection.
