I only notice this hole/ulcer like on my foreskin 2 days after i went to a massage parlour to get a happy ending handjob after massage. No sex and no genital to genital contact. Just massage and finish with handjob with massage oil.

Hey,

Still do not think that links to syphilis as the behavior you had was low risky.  
VDRL test is highly sensitive to test out ‘real infection’.  
But anyway you need to book an appointment with the doctor and get tested.  
Please update the information as it is abnormal for contracting syphilis via masturbation…

Good luck.

Do not worry then, but I would like to ask the doctor to have a look and give some treatment.
