Syphilis: RPR Titer Decrease, Progression to Non-Reactive?

I recently had a syphilis infection. My RPR titer went down from 64 to 8. Will it get to non - reactive

Syphilis, a treatable­ infection, responds to antibiotic treatme­nt. Your declining RPR titer indicates progre­ss. A titer of 8 signifies improveme­nt, though complete clearance­ may take time. Perse­vere with prescribe­d treatment. Consult your dermatologist regularly for monitoring and guidance­. Syphilis symptoms include sores, rashes, fe­ver, and fatigue. Completing tre­atment prevents complications and stops the­ infection's spread.

If you have a genital rash, you must immediately visit a dermatologist experienced in managing skin conditions in the genital area. Conditions of self-diagnosis and self-mediation can endanger and worsen them. Consequently, assessing a doctor will help you tailor-make treatment that suits you.

Hi I am 25 year old I have a scar on right cheek due to pimple,the pimple has gone but it left with a scar

Male | 25

You suffered from a pimple on your cheek that is currently a scar, which is very common. The skin may leave a mark after the healing of a pimple. Whenever skin tries to fix itself these scars form. To make the spot where it is blended with your natural complexion, use remedies such as lotions containing retinol or vitamin C.

I don't know if it's jock itch because I sweat alot in that area or its am STI because I am sexually active

Male | 24

Either a jock itch or an STI can cause groin itching. Jock itch results from sweat and friction, leading to redness, itching, and rashes. An STI may have similar symptoms but is related to unprotected sex. Use antifungal creams for jock itch and practice safe sex to prevent STIs. Maintaining good hygiene is also important.
