Well i have gotten bit by a tick on my toe, a bump appeared on my ankle about 1-2 days later with a white ring around it, I m not sure what it is or what is was because it has went away, I m actually kind of frightened if it is Lyme Disease because I ve been seeing that as a symptom. Do you know what it might be? I also don t have any pictures but it looks like a large mosquito bite with a white ring around it, it was itchy as well. Help me, thank you!
Hi and thank you so much for this query. I am so sorry to hear about this insect bite that you have reported. It would be very necessary to see a picture of this rash to tell whether it has the characteristic look of a rash suggestive of Lyme disease. In doubts, this would be followed up by a blood test to look for markers of this disease. Also, do you live in an area known to harbor Lyme disease? I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
