Granuloma Inguinale: Prevention

Prevention of granuloma inguinale has three important aspects:

• Avoidance of casual sexual contacts, particularly among homosexual males, in countries with high rates of the disease
• Tracing and examination of an infected person's recent sexual contacts
• Monitoring the patient's ulcers or scar tissue for signs of reinfection for a period of six months after antibiotic treatment
