Have you been bitten by a tick? There are three key steps to take when you've had a tick bite. First, remove the tick. Tick attachment time is important. Removing ticks as soon as possible reduces the risk of infection.

Second, learn how to recognize the rash that follows the bite. It is important to understand that a rash is not always present or easily recognizable in early Lyme disease, and this can lead to delayed diagnosis and treatment.

Finally, if you are concerned about symptoms or a rash, take a picture of the rash and contact your physician immediately.
