  1. Rapid Syphilis Testing & Treatment in Singapore - STD Screening

  2. Mainly because of the growing population, people started to get infected with syphilis. Syphilis symptoms cause a lot of concern among people who are infected with this disease. It is not easy to detect whether someone has syphilis or not during initial stages because it is very difficult to differentiate between early stages and late stages of this disease. This is why you need to visit a doctor for a proper diagnosis and treatment. The symptoms are as follows: • A sore or soreness on the skin • Skin rash • Painful urination • Swollen testicles • Unexplained fever • An illness

  3. STD Screening Clinics in Singapore offer rapid syphilis testing and treatment for syphilis. Screening for syphilis is recommended for all sexually active men and women who are not already infected with syphilis. The test detects antibodies to syphilis and enables a diagnosis of latent or early syphilis within 7 days. In addition, the test can determine if a person has been exposed to untreated or inadequately treated early latent syphilis. Early latent syphilis can be cured with appropriate treatment. The test is also useful in detecting HIV infection in patients who may have been previously infected with HIV and later reinfected with HIV infection due to sexual transmission of HIV.

  4. These Clinics also offer rapid testing and treatment services for those who have contracted any of the following STDs: • Chlamydia • Gonorrhoea • Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) • Hepatitis B (HBV) • Hepatitis C (HCV) • Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) • Syphillis

  5. If you are a resident of Singapore and have contracted any of the above STDs, you can visit a STD Screening Clinic in Singapore such as Cross Street Medical Clinic to get tested for these STDs and receive appropriate treatment.
