Top 10 Tick Bite Symptoms

Circular Rash

One of the most typical symptoms of tick bites is the growth of a circular rash around the affected area. It tends to show up around 7 to 10 days after the first bite, but it might also take more time. In the next few days, the rash would expand in size up to more than 30 centimeters. It often has a circular shape and is clear in the middle, which is quite like the eye of a bull. Keep in mind that the rash will not appear in all cases. Thus, the lack of this sign does not necessarily mean that you aren’t infected. [5]
