A member asked:
I have a raised scar from a tick bite 2 years ago, is that pontentially bad?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not: If after two years there has been no problem other than a raised scar - you probably have no infection, but a dermatologist might help you feel certain and even might be able to remove it. Best!
