Dermatologist 's  Response
The diagnosis if syphilis can only be made after serological tests like VDRL and TPHA.You need to get both these tests done as the former is a sensitive test while the latter is a specific test. VDRL is considered positive if it turns out to be positive in 1 is to 8 dilution or more.You must get yourself investigated before any treatment can be started. Consult your dermatologist regarding the above mentioned treatment options. Regards
