Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Bacterial infection. It is treatable in the early stages. Without treatment, it can lead to disability, neurological disorders, and death.

It is possible to develop tumor or lymph node enlargement in secondary syphilis which may appear tumor. If it is syphilis them possibility of HIV also please check him out which may prone to develop many lymphomas etc.

Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is.

You have taken him to doctor otherwise he may develop tertiary syphyllis lead to cognitive and cardiac valve involvement.

Please consult your doctor, he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Take care.
