Yeah I did that an it doesn't look like it, but I'm nervous it may turn into it if that is even possible.

Syphilis with condom use is very unlikely. You need skin to skin contact with a sore to get syphilis.

What I mean is, will the sore how up a penile shaft or where the condom was not covering?  Please doctors just a simple answer is all I need if u want to be detailed that would be greatly appreciated also.
