This commonly occurs within 3 weeks of exposure but can range from 10 to 90 days. A person is highly contagious during the primary stage.ymptoms of congenital syphilis include: 1  A highly contagious watery discharge from the nose. 2  Painful inflammation of the bone coverings. 3  Contagious rash that frequently appears over the palms of the hands and soles of the feet.
Primary syphilis is typically acquired by direct sexual contact with the infectious lesions of another person. Approximately 3 to 90 days after the initial exposure (average 21 days) a skin lesion, called a chancre, appears at the point of contact.
