Lyme Disease Rash
These symptoms are divided into three categories. The disease develops in different stages that can last for many years, since the borrelia divides very slowly.
Usually symptoms start on the third day and first month after the bite. Symptoms as the flu virus accompanied by (usually) with the appearance in the skin of the characteristic circular red rash from the bite, called erythema migrans (EM) (a few days or weeks of having been bitten by an infected tick, in case of infection).
Ringspot has approximate dimensions such as, in the first place, the palm size and it has the name of erythema chronicum migrans. This stain will gradually widen the area which is located around the bite and eventually disappears again. This statement is so common in these situations it is assumed that, in effect, is infection and it is absolutely mandatory that the person concerned continues to antibiotic treatment.
Do not confuse this with the redness and safe community that extends about 1 to 2 cm around the area of the bite, which causes intense itching that disappears after a few days or a week at most, and that shows no sign of any infection.
A second less common cutaneous manifestation during this first stage of the disease is an inflammation of bluish-red skin that commonly occurs in the ear lobe, which is called benign cuti Lymphadenosis (Lymphocytoma).
