I got bit by a tick a year ago. i'm black so there was no bullseye showing. now a year later; the bite site is still raised and itchy?

See Doctor: If you have a Dermatologist , go there. If not, then see your family Doctor. Best to get it checked. You do not always get a bulls-eye. Lyme disease is nothing to fool around with. Make the appointment - it's been a year and still there. Good Luck.

I was bitten by a tick on my neck yesterday. It now has a raised lump and is red around it and is a bit itchy. Do I need to have it checked?
Can a slightly raised rash that is brightly red with a hint of small pus be a tick bite? It is not itchy.
Found a tick attached to my back 4 wks ago. Husband removed it but wasn't sure if he got all the mouth parts, so he used a disinfected needle to clean it out. There's still a hard raised bump where the tick was & it's very itchy. No other symptoms?
Insect bite. Red raised bump and then often itchy rash extended out about 1.5 inches to left (no bullseye). If it was Lymes would it have kept expanding? Would it also have faded away after two days of Neosporin if it were Lymes? No other symptoms?
Hi. A tick bit me last week Thursday. Its still red and itchy. Can Fucidin or phenergan help. Im a 36 year old female. Im in South Africa and read that lyme disease is in Europe and America. Would tick bite fever cause fatigue?
