Syphilide Pustular Ecthymatous

Syphilide pustular ectimative is a skin disease caused by Treponema pallidum. Also known as chancroid. It is also called a tubercle or bubo. A pustule is a rounded cavity (vesicle) that appears in a patient at the site of an injury or other pathology. It contains an inflammatory fluid and when it drains or is opened, pus begins to leak out of it. A lump is different from a pustule. It is found deep in the tissues of the dermis, but not as deep as chancroid in patients with syphilis. As a rule, the pustules and tubercles that appear are painful and difficult to move from place to place. Because of this, the patient has to change treatment methods.



Pustular ectymatous syphilide (or secondary syphilis, colonic, or coin-shaped syphilitis) is a chronic skin disease of an infectious nature, the causative agent of which is Treponema pallidum. The disease manifests itself in the form of vesicular rashes, varying in size and shape, located on the skin in the form of a ring or semi-ring. The ulcers that form inside the pustules resemble rings that surround only a small number of wrinkles. This form of syphilis is common in 80% of cases.

External signs of Pustular Ecthymmatous syphilide include:

Skin lesions of varying severity (small ulcers). They can be both superficial (epidermal) and deep (subepithelial). Damage to the deeper layers of the skin may occur. Without treatment, scars may form. Subcutaneous nodes may appear. In the area of ​​edema, attachment is possible
