Early syphilis in women may cause dry skin or papules, and as the disease progresses, desquamation is likely to occur.

In the early stages of syphilis, the symptoms may not be particularly obvious. Generally, the skin and mucous membranes will be slightly damaged, and there will be plaques or pain and itching. As the disease progresses, if it is not treated for a long time, pustules may appear. In severe cases, it will spread throughout the body, and symptoms such as swollen and painful joints or fever may occur. Therefore, syphilis must be controlled in time after it occurs.

Syphilis is a sexually transmitted disease mainly caused by infection with Treponema pallidum, which is mainly transmitted from mother to child through sexual intercourse or blood.
