A member asked:
How long should i wait before seeking medical attention after being bit by a tick a month ago and still have a red with a white circle around it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Why wait: If no resolution or improvement has occurred in one month, see physician and get examination/evaluation. Better to be cautious and get piece of mind.
