Erythema Migrans Rash
Most cases of Lyme disease start with a bull's eye rash at the site of the tick bite. The rash can occur from days to weeks (typically 7-10 days) after a tick bite.
If this rash appears, treatment with antibiotics is recommended.
It is thought that Lyme Disease can be prevented if the tick is removed within 24 hours of attachment.
