How long does it take for a tick bite to heal?

Posted August 27th, 2011 by admin




I had a tick bite about a month ago. I went to the Dr. he gave me an antibiotic. It is still not healed. Is this the norm?

    It’s hard to remove a tick without leaving some of the mouth parts in the skin, which can cause a foreign body reaction. Whether that is what you have, I cannot be sure , because you describe a transient, intermittent irritation, which doesn’t fit with persistence of tick parts. Or it may be the intermittent irritation is coincidental.

    If the problem persists, have a doc look at it

    Well I got bit by a tick when I was little and I have lyme’s disease all my life.
    Talk to your doctor about lyme’s disease.
