Question

I realised after 3 days that what I thought was a skin mole/ growth was actually a tick. It was embedded in my skin for 3 days. Today it fell off living a tick bite mark. I have photo of tick and the bite mark. I have no symptoms yet. Should I worry?

Not on this forum: However a virtual consult after registering with HealthTap would help, that way you can attach a photo, have a video, audio or text chat with a doctor , good luck
