In this session, we will review chancroid, a genital STI caused by H. Ducreyi. This bacterium causes ulcers presenting as painful sores (soft chancre) on the genitalia. We will cover presentation, diagnosis, and treatment. We will also review the differences between the genital ulcers of syphilis, LGV, and granuloma inguinale.
