Syphilis treatment

2021-08-26 12:21:45
Last month I did std panel test, there I found TPHA positive with 1:320 titre and VDRL was 1:4. When I met dermatologist they suggested to take doxycycline 100 mg twice a day for 21 days and to repeat the TPHA test. I did both TPHA and VDRL now the TPHA level is 1:640 and VDRL is 1:2. I'm not understanding this. Please help me by giving proper guidance.
