Chancroid

Chancroid: Chancroid is a bacterial sexually transmitted disease.

Symptoms and Treatment:

Chancroid is characterized by small painful bumps in the genital region that rupture and secrete a foul smelling discharge. Symptoms usually appear within several days after intimate contact with an infected person. When the exposed sores of chancroid are present, a person is especially susceptible to other STDs that are transmitted through the blood stream. Therefore, sexual contact should stop until the infection is fully treated.
