Treatment of soft cancer, which is a sexually transmitted disease, should be guided by a urologist, in the case of men, or a gynecologist, in the case of women, but is usually done with the use of one of the following antibiotics:
Treatment during pregnancy may be performed with 500 mg erythromycin stearate in tablet form for 8 days or with a single injection of ceftriaxone 250 mg.

During treatment, the patient with mild cancer cannot have intimate contact and should keep the affected area very clean, washing the area with warm water and mild soap, at least once a day or every time he urinates.
If the soft cancer wounds do not disappear within 7 days after starting the treatment, the patient should return to the doctor to adjust the treatment or identify another disease that could cause the lesions to develop.
In HIV patients, treatment may take longer and you may need to return to your doctor each week until the disease is cured.
Signs of improvement in soft cancer appear approximately 3 days after starting treatment and include decreased pain, decreased wound size, and healing of skin lesions.
Signs of worsening soft cancer are common when treatment is not done correctly and include wounds on other parts of the body, such as the lips or throat.
