Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My mother got bit by a tick on her knee a couple weeks ago. She removed the tick and no circular rash appeared or any other symptoms. Yesterday she developed a stomach rash. She has not changed laundry soaps or anything else like that. Could this rash be from her bite?
