Dear Megan,
Hi! Welcome to healthcaremagic
That tickbite which you had years before is not responsible for the present condition. It may be just a coincidence that you are having problem in the same area. Nonetheless You need to consult your doctor for clinical examination for it could be dermatitis , psoriasis, tineasis or may be some allergy.
Take care Bye
