Is chlamydia an acute disease?

Chlamydia can be a chronic or temporary disease. Ideally, a patient quickly learns about the infection and gets treatment; this treatment is completely curative and long-term infection will not occur. In addition, some patients will clear chlamydia without antibiotics, although nobody infected with chlamydia should avoid antibiotics. If chlamydia is left untreated, it can cause chronic complications, but these complications may persist after chlamydia is cleared with effective treatment. Lastly, it's possible to have untreated chlamydia for years without knowing. In that sense, chlamydia may be chronic.
