Primary of sore syphilis is a chancre.
The symptoms of syphilis are fever, sore throat, feeling of weakness, discomfort throughout the body, loss of weight, headaches, stiffness and many more.
No, chancre and canker are not interchangable. A canker sore is a benign and painful sore on the mucous membranes. A chancre is a painless ulcer on the mucous membranes that is a specific sign of syphilis.
The pox, or venereal disease; a chronic, specific, infectious disease, usually communicated by sexual intercourse or by hereditary transmission, and occurring in three stages known as primary, secondary, and tertiary syphilis. See under Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary.
See your primary care provider first for a recurring sore. Your primary care provider can narrow the possibilities and help you figure out what type of specialist to see first. The location of the sore and your health history will play a part in making these decisions.
Syphilis is a sexually transmitted infection caused by the spirochete bacterium Treponema pallidum subspecies pallidum. The primary route of transmission is through sexual contact; it may also be transmitted from mother to fetus during pregnancy or at birth, resulting in congenital syphilis. The signs and symptoms of syphilis vary depending in which of the four stages it presents (primary, secondary, latent, and tertiary). The primary stage classically presents with a single chancre (a firm, painless, non-itchy skin ulceration), secondary syphilis with a diffuse rash which frequently involves the palms of the hands and soles of the feet, latent syphilis with little to no symptoms, and tertiary syphilis with gummas, neurological, or cardiac symptoms. It has, however, been known as "the great imitator" due to its frequent atypical presentations. Diagnosis is usually via blood tests; however, the bacteria can also be visualized under a microscope. Syphilis can be effectively treated with antibiotics, specifically the preferred intramuscular penicillin G (given intravenously for neurosyphilis), or else ceftriaxone, and in those who have a severe pencillin allergy, oral doxycycline or azithromycin.(Information taken from wikipedia)
If you even slightly suspect that you have this disease, go to a doctor, clinic, or or public service organization to be checked. Syphilis is curable, especially in the early stages, using antibiotics. But if it is not treated, it can kill you. You will need to have a blood test to know for sure.The signs and symptoms of syphilis vary depending in which of the four stages it presents (primary, secondary, latent, and tertiary).

It has, however, been known as "the great imitator" due to its frequent atypical presentations. Diagnosis is usually via blood tests; however, the bacteria can also be detected using dark field microscopy.
You can die of untreated syphilis. Syphilis is easily treated, so it's not necessary to let it kill you.
Because syphilis gets into the blood.
No Syphilis is a human diesese that can not be transferred to pets
This sounds like it could be a chancre, which is the first sign of a syphilis infection. You should go back to your doctor and mention this specifically. However, it could be other things as well, so the doctor will have to take a look. It is important to get treatment though (easy, one shot of penicillin), because although the sore will go away if it is syphilis, the infection will still be in the body and there will be consequences down the road such as infection in the brain.
Treponema pallidum causes syphilis. Syphilis is a serious disease, if untreated. Syphilis is sexually transmitted disease.
