A member asked:
Also do bullseye tick bites get bigger or stay the same?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below: Usually, if you have a tick bite which then becomes a bulls-eye in appearance, this is the hallmark sign for lyme disease and the bulls-eye will usually increase in size and will need to be treated with antibiotics. See your doctor asap.
