Hi if your VDRL and TPHA both are positive then it is diagnostic of syphilis which is a sexually transmitted disease . It's caused by Treponema pallidum, a spirochete. It can be treated by Benzathine Penicillin. Visit your doctor for further follow up. You have also not mentioned much of the clinical details. After a clinical history and detailed examination doctor will be able to tell you about stage of the disease. After starting the treatment VDRL will be repeated at particular intervals in order to see whether the treatment is working. The titres of VDRL should decrease once the treatment is started.
