Syphilis Sore

I am currently on syphilis treatment ( got that big injection). I am curious to know if I can spread my own sore/rash or syphilis to other parts of my body....and if it will affect my treatment. Will the rash near outside my mouth spread if i touch it or if my mask rubs it over my facial area.

Nope. Syphilis is a systemic infection so it is "in your body". The sore is where the infection entered the body :)
