Many Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs) or Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) manifest with visible signs on the skin, genitals, and mucous membranes, making dermatologists (specializing in Venereology) uniquely qualified to diagnose and treat these conditions. We provide a private, empathetic, and confidential environment for evaluation and management.
Early diagnosis and proper treatment are crucial for preventing long-term complications, such as infertility, chronic pain, or systemic health issues.
Small, flesh-colored bumps in the genital area, sometimes resembling a cauliflower shape.
Painful, recurring fluid-filled blisters or ulcers on the genitals, anus, mouth, or surrounding areas.
Primary Stage: A single, firm, painless sore (chancre) at the site of infection. Secondary Stage: A reddish skin rash, often appearing on the palms and soles.
We take a thorough patient history and conduct a sensitive physical examination in a private setting.
May include blood tests (for HIV, Syphilis, Herpes), urine tests (for Chlamydia/Gonorrhea), or fluid/swab samples from active sores or lesions.
Bacterial STDs (like Syphilis, Chlamydia, Gonorrhea) are typically curable with antibiotics. Viral STDs (like Herpes, HIV) are manageable with antiviral medications to control symptoms and reduce transmission risk.
