The painless syphilis sore that you would get after you are first infected can be confused for an ingrown hair, zipper cut, or other seemingly harmless bump.

You could also be infected with syphilis and have very mild symptoms or none at all.

Sexual Risk Behavior: HIV, STD, & Teen Pregnancy Prevention
Many young people engage in sexual risk behaviors that can result in unintended health outcomes. For example, among U.S. high school students surveyed in 2011
47.4% had ever had sexual intercourse
33.7% had had sexual intercourse during the previous 3 months, and, of these
39.8% did not use a condom the last time they had sex
76.7% did not use birth control pills or Depo-Provera to prevent pregnancy the last time they had sex
15.3% had had sex with four or more people during their life
Sexual risk behaviors place adolescents at risk for HIV infection, other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), and unintended pregnancy:
An estimated 8,300 young people aged 13–24 years in the 40 states reporting to CDC had HIV infection in 20092
Nearly half of the 19 million new STDs each year are among young people aged 15–24 years
More than 400,000 teen girls aged 15–19 years gave birth in 2009
