Syphilis – The STI That Can Eat Your Brain

In this eye-opening episode of MedHeads, we dive deep into the dangers of syphilis, an STI that's making a dangerous comeback. While it starts off as a harmless, painless sore, untreated syphilis can stealthily progress to cause serious, life-altering damage, including brain damage.

We break down the stages of syphilis from the initial sore to the potentially devastating effects of neurosyphilis, a condition that literally creates holes in your brain. But don't worry, it’s preventable! We discuss the importance of early detection, regular STI testing, and what steps you can take to stay safe. Listen in to learn how this old-school STI is still a serious threat and how you can protect yourself from its long-term consequences.
