Top 10 Tick Bite Symptoms

Heart Issues

In some rare cases when the infection caused by tick bites progresses, it would affect the functions of your cardiovascular system. This leads to several abnormalities in the usual activities. Shortness of breath is the most common sign as the heart cannot work as usual to pump blood and oxygen to your lungs. In addition, people with tick bites would experience dizziness, heart rate changes, and heart palpitations for the same reasons. Keep in mind that these signs would come and go unexpectedly even without treatments. However, it is still better to discuss with your doctor to prevent any further complications. [4]
