See your doctor.

Syphilis is usually diagnosed by a blood sample, but it can also be diagnosed by a swab sample from the sores.

HPV is usually detected by an abnormal pap smear. There is NO test to detect HPV in men.

It depends where you live, in the UK it is best to go to an STI clinic they are attached to hospitals in most towns, I think the same applies to Australia and New Zealand too. The treatment is completely anonymous and is free.
In the US then some kind of public facility must be available the best way to find out is to look it up on the net.

See your doctor or go to the health department in your area. For a full check, you'll have to get a pelvic exam and a blood test. You can probably call your local health department (anonymously) for more info.
