Private Symptomatic Lesion Test in London
Wimpole Street Medical & Dental provides private symptomatic lesion testing at our clinic. This test uses a PCR swab from an active genital or oral lesion to detect the most common causes of STI-related ulcers, including syphilis and herpes simplex virus.
Testing uses a PCR swab, with results available within 7 days.
No GP referral is required. Swabs should be taken from active lesions for optimal sensitivity. All samples are analysed at UKAS-accredited laboratories.
About Lesion-Based STI Testing
Genital and oral ulcers can be caused by several STIs, including primary syphilis (painless chancre) and herpes simplex virus (painful vesicles/ulcers). Clinical appearance alone is often insufficient for definitive diagnosis, making laboratory testing essential.
PCR-based swab testing directly from lesions provides rapid, sensitive identification of the causative organism. This is particularly important for syphilis, where early diagnosis enables prompt treatment and prevents progression to later stages.
