Bacterial infection, usually sexually transmitted, that begins with a painless sore.
Syphilis develops in stages, and symptoms can vary in each of them. The first stage is characterized by the appearance of painless sores on the genitals, rectum, or mouth. Once the initial sore is healed, the second stage is characterized by the appearance of a rash. Then, there are no symptoms until the last stage, which can occur years later.
