Where do patients with chancre experience eczema? How to prevent sexually transmitted infections during blood donation
Chancre is a sexually transmitted disease caused by infection with Haemophilus bacteria, which is highly infectious. If not treated effectively, it can affect the relationship between spouses. If the condition is detected early, it can be controlled. Investigate the symptoms of chancre.
What are the symptoms of chancre?
Patients with chancre for the first time may have a viral infection in their body, with positive antibodies. This usually occurs around the labia and anus, with erosion or ulcers in the affected area and scabbing. Generally, there is an incubation period of 5-6 days. When in close contact with the patient, papules of the size of pinpricks may appear on the thighs, buttocks, and around the anus of women, with a noticeable burning sensation.
As the condition progresses, the rash gradually increases, reaching the size of a mung bean. It can cause erosion and ulceration for about a week, with secretions flowing out. After a few days, the rash forms with obvious pain, and urination and defecation are also very difficult. If the body is overworked, frequently staying up late, emotional fluctuations are too large, or both before and after menstruation, it may lead to a recurrence of the disease. The patient may have obvious itching and pain in the affected area, but the course of the disease is very short and can subside in about 15 days.
