Call CDC: Most cases of Leishmaniasis occur in Mexico and South America, and tests are readily available in endemic areas. If you are concerned about a possible case in the US, go get checked out by a dermatologist that can contact the CDC and locate this for you, if you need more help to locate a Derm, contact HealthTap for a referral and more specific answers
