In addition to contracting syphilis, if not actively treated, it can easily develop into secondary syphilis. So how can secondary syphilis be prevented?
1. Timely treatment after contracting syphilis. All suspected patients should undergo preventive examinations and syphilis serum tests to detect new patients early and treat them promptly.
2. Early syphilis patients are required to abstain from sexual activity, and those who have been ill for more than two years should also avoid sexual intercourse as much as possible. Condoms must be used during any sexual contact. If the patient is unmarried, marriage is only permitted after the syphilis has been cured.
3. If a syphilis patient is discovered, they must be forced into quarantine for treatment. The patient's clothing and personal items, such as towels, clothes, razors, utensils, and bedding, must be strictly disinfected under the guidance of medical personnel to eliminate the source of infection.
4. Trace the patient's sexual partners, including those reported by the patient and those identified through medical personnel visits. Find all sexual contacts of the patient, conduct preventive examinations, follow up with observations, and provide necessary treatments. Spouses are absolutely prohibited from having sexual intercourse before the patient is cured.
5. Avoid unclean sexual behavior.
6. The patient's daily necessities should be disinfected by boiling.
Additionally, if patients want to stay away from sexually transmitted diseases, they can adopt these methods.
1. Abstinence
Do not engage in sexual relations with anyone.
2. Avoid unclean sexual intercourse
Maintain a long-term sexual partner relationship, develop a stable long-term sexual relationship with one person, and ensure that neither partner has sexual relations with others; each should be the other's only sexual partner.
3. Condoms
As the saying goes, "A good man has a set," which is about being responsible for the woman and also for one's own health. Female condoms are also available now.
