sexually transmitted infection
there are many different forms on prevention of syphilis and other sexually transmitted diseases in general. prevention of syphilis includes avoiding contact of bodily fluids with an infected person. this can be particularly difficult because syphilis is usually transmitted by people who are unaware that they have the disease because they do not have any visible sores or rashes that may denote having an infection in general. being abstinent or having mutually monogamous sex with a person who is uninfected with any type of sexually transmitted disease is the greatest guarantee of not becoming infected with syphilis or any form of a sexually transmitted disease. using latex condoms can however reduce the risk of obtaining syphilis. in order to prevent further contamination to other individuals, benzathine penicillin is given to any contacts. washing, douching, or urinating cannot prevent the transmission of a sexually transmitted disease in general.
