I had a tick bite a couple of weeks ago. It never penetrated my skin and I removed it promptly within minutes. However, currently I have a discolored spot on my skin. It looks like a small bull s eye (about the size of small freckle. No reactions yet or symptoms of concern. Should I have it checked out by a doctor?
Hi, Welcome to HCM. Tick bite is sometimes problematic. When a skin lesion is present then it may be erythema Chronicus migrans. This is skin lesion of Lyme's disease. Don't worry, consult a dermatologist who will examine you and guide you in proper way. Thank you.
