Arora's Assessment
What might be happening
Based on the information you've provided, you may be experiencing the following:
-
Syphilis: This is a sexually transmitted infection that you mentioned you have. It progresses through different stages, each with its own set of symptoms. The painless sore you described is typical of the primary stage, while the rash and mucous membrane lesions you mentioned can occur in the secondary stage. The forgetfulness and vision problems you're experiencing could be a sign of neurosyphilis, which can occur at any stage.
- Treatment typically involves antibiotics, often penicillin.
-
Gonorrhea: This is another sexually transmitted infection that you mentioned you have. Symptoms can include pain during sex and abnormal discharge.
- Treatment typically involves antibiotics.
-
Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID): This is an infection of the female reproductive organs, often caused by sexually transmitted infections like gonorrhea and chlamydia. Symptoms can include pain during sex, spotting, and abnormal discharge.
- Treatment typically involves antibiotics.
What you can do
- Seek immediate medical attention. The symptoms you're experiencing, particularly the neurological symptoms, require urgent evaluation and treatment.
- Avoid sexual activity until you've been treated to prevent spreading the infections to others.
- Make sure your sexual partners get tested and treated as well.
What you should look out for
- If your symptoms worsen or if you develop new symptoms, seek medical attention immediately.
- If you experience severe abdominal pain, this could be a sign of a complication of PID and you should seek immediate medical attention.
