Secondary syphilis?,”Secondary syphilis causes a diffuse maculopapular rash involving the trunk and extremities, including the palms and soles, with generalized lymphadenopathy and systemic symptoms. Suspected cases should be confirmed with lab testing (eg, RPR or VDRL, followed by a treponemal test {eg
FTA-ABS]). Treatment of primary or secondary syphilis is a dose of intramuscular penicillin.”
