What is Lyme Disease?

Lyme disease is an infection spread through the bite of infected ticks. It can affect the skin, joints, heart, and nervous system if untreated.

What Lyme Disease usually means

  • Fatigue and fever

  • Rash (often bull’s-eye shaped) 
  • Joint pain or stiffness 
  • Nerve or heart problems if untreated 

What people ask about Lyme Disease

“How do I know if a tick bite caused Lyme?”
