几天不破溃就不是硬下疳
Generally, if a skin lesion suspected to be a chancre has not ulcerated after more than two weeks, it is unlikely to be a chancre. The detailed analysis is as follows:
Chancres are the typical manifestation of primary syphilis and follow a strict timeline of development. They initially appear as painless red macules, which evolve within a few days into inflammatory papules that gradually become firm. The progression from papule or induration to ulceration typically occurs within 1–2 weeks. After ulceration, they form round or oval shallow ulcers 1–2 cm in diameter, with a smooth surface, elevated borders, and a consistency similar to cartilage. If the lesion remains intact for over two weeks without signs of surface necrosis or ulceration, it does not conform to the typical course of a chancre and therefore is likely not a chancre.
Skin lesions presenting as abnormal indurations or papules should be taken seriously, as different infections or dermatological conditions may present similarly. It is important to maintain good skin hygiene in daily life and avoid scratching or irritating affected areas. If the lesion rapidly increases in size, produces discharge, or shows other changes, prompt medical evaluation is necessary to determine the underlying cause through appropriate diagnostic tests and receive proper treatment.
