It's generally not recommended to rely solely on information found online to determine whether or not you're cured of a medical condition. It's important to consult a healthcare professional who can assess your specific situation and provide appropriate guidance. They can advise you on whether further treatment is necessary and provide instructions on how to prevent a recurrence of your symptoms.

As you say you have no symptoms you may have latent syphilis if you had syphilis in the past or the test may be false pos. Please ask your...more
