General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,

Treponema pallidum is a type of bacteria which mostly causes syphilis but also diseases like bejel and yaws.

If your doctor diagnosed you with syphilis, the treatment depends on the stage of disease like early stage or latent stage and also on whether it is primary, secondary or tertiary syphilis.

Take Care!
