What Does A Rash On The Stomach Indicate?

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?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello, my name is Dr.Dorina Gurabardhi. I understand your concern.
There are many reasons that cause rashes :
-heat,
-allergens,
-immune system disorders and
-medications.
One of the most common skin disorders that causes a rash is known as eczema.
Some advices that I can give to you are:
-Take an oral allergy or anti-itch medication.
-Take a bleach bath.
-Apply an anti-itch cream or calamine lotion to the affected area.
-Moisturize your skin at least twice a day.
-Avoid scratching.
-Apply cool, wet compresses.
-Take a warm bath.
Hope my answer was helpful, if you have any other questions I'll be glad to help, thanks!
