Bite: Yes, please take your daughter to the doctor. The bite could be from anything. Tick bites can have long-lasting consequences. This will give you peace of mind. Peace and good health.

I got a tick bite about April 1 or 2. It still itches and my nurse daughter looked at a picture of it and got worried that it started to get a ring around it. I'll admit I have been scratching it so I am hoping it is just irritated. Tick bite?
