Yes, but only in the Tertiary stage, which takes several years. This happens when Syphilis is not treated, and only if the person has sores on their nose, but never gets it treated after several years. Eventually, the bacteria will eat the tissue of the nose, e.g. the sores are the bacteria eating the tissue, until it finally falls off. The bacteria might be able to spread to the nose by sores/rashes on the hands, or from oral sex. However, this doesn't happen very often since Syphilis is curable with modern medicine; it used to happen before there was a cure.

You can Google Mayoclinic and BBC h2g2, along with Syphilis and be able to find the specific information.

Can you lose your nose if you have syphllis?

Yes, untreated syphilis can lead to severe complications, including the destruction of nasal tissue. This condition is known as "gummatous syphilis," where soft tissue lesions develop and can cause significant damage to the nose and other parts of the body. However, with early diagnosis and appropriate treatment, syphilis can be effectively managed, and serious complications can often be prevented.


When did the great spihnx nose fall off?

There is no specific date. Some have suggested Napoleon's army shot the nose off with canon balls, but there are sketches of the Sphinx that pre-date Napoleon by 50 years and they show the already Sphinx missing it's nose. On the other hand there are chisel marks that indicate someone climbed up there and used a tool to break off the nose.
