Solution

The statement is true.

Here's a step-by-step explanation:

  1. Chancroid is a sexually transmitted infection (STI) caused by the bacterium Haemophilus ducreyi.

  2. The primary symptom of chancroid is the formation of a small bump on the genitals, which can occur within a day to two weeks after exposure to the bacteria.

  3. This bump then turns into an ulcer, which is typically painful. The ulcer may be accompanied by swollen lymph nodes in the groin area.

  4. Therefore, a sore or ulceration on the genitals is indeed a symptom of chancroid.

So, the correct answer is b. True.
