It used to be rare in this area, but now it is commonplace — the tick-borne, bacterial infection Lyme disease. It usually shows up as a bullseye rash after a tick bite.
Spread by the “black-legged” tick, Lyme disease is caused by the bacteria Borrelia burgdorferi. If not treated with an antibiotic, it can lead to problems such as muscle and joint aches, facial paralysis, arthritis and brain inflammation.
