Syphilis can be identified through various symptoms and medical testing. Early signs include sores, rashes, and flu-like symptoms, but many people may be asymptomatic. The most reliable way to confirm syphilis is through blood tests that detect antibodies or the presence of the bacteria. If you suspect someone has syphilis, it's important they seek medical evaluation for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

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.

Diagnosis is usually via blood tests; however, the bacteria can also be detected using dark field microscopy.
