Syphilis will not be carried for life: after the infection of syphilis, timely consultation, and under the guidance of the doctor’s full amount of regular anti-syphilis treatment, and regular review, can be clinically cured, so will not be carried for life syphilis spirochetes. However, after syphilis is cured, the non-syphilis antibody titer may be positive for life. 2. Syphilis can be carried for life: if it is hidden syphilis, that is, after the infection of syphilis serology test is positive, but the body does not have any clinical symptoms, the length of time varies, and some people even do not have the disease for life. Therefore, hidden syphilis may carry the syphilis spirochete for life.
