Vdrl is non specific and can be false positive due to many variables like flu or vaccine. Tpha and fta - abs are more specific and accurate.
So unless you have clinical symptoms it is most likely false positive vdrl. You can repeat it after 4 weeks do contact me for further diagnosis and treatment or if you still have some doubts you want to clear.
