Anyone who is sexually active should consider getting tested for syphilis, particularly those who have multiple sexual partners, engage in unprotected sex, or have a partner who has tested positive for the disease. Men who have sex with men and individuals with HIV are also at a higher risk. Pregnant women should be tested as well, as syphilis can cause complications during pregnancy and can be passed to the baby.
Getting tested for syphilis is crucial to prevent the spread of the disease and to ensure early treatment. If left untreated, syphilis can lead to severe health problems affecting the heart, brain, and other organs. Early detection allows for effective treatment, typically with antibiotics. Regular testing is also important because syphilis can be asymptomatic, meaning you can have the disease without showing any symptoms.
There are several urgent care and walk-in clinics in and around Marysville that offer syphilis testing, such as Instant Urgent Care in Rocklin and Carbon Health in Roseville and Sacramento. These clinics typically offer same-day or next-day appointments, which can be conveniently booked through Solv’s website and mobile app.
Your primary care provider can also test for syphilis. Regular check-ups with your provider are a good opportunity to discuss any concerns and to get tested.
Free STD testing is available at various community health centers in Sutter County. These centers provide confidential testing and counseling services.
At-home testing kits for syphilis are also an option. These kits can be ordered online and used in the privacy of your own home.
According to the CDC, the rate of syphilis in Sutter County, where Marysville is located, has been on the rise in recent years. This trend is consistent with national data, which shows an increase in syphilis cases across the country. However, the rate of syphilis in Sutter County remains lower than in some neighboring counties such as San Mateo and Yolo.
Risk factors for syphilis in Marysville include unprotected sex, multiple sexual partners, and drug use. The rise in syphilis cases may also be linked to decreased condom use, increased testing and detection, and changes in sexual behavior.
In addition to syphilis, other STDs such as gonorrhea, chlamydia, HIV, and hepatitis are also prevalent in Marysville. Like syphilis, these diseases can be asymptomatic and can lead to serious health problems if left untreated. Regular testing for all STDs is recommended for sexually active individuals.
