In Southwest Virginia, health experts are urging people to be cautious about ticks this summer, especially after spending time outdoors or going for a hike. Dr. Cynthia Morrow, the Director of the Roanoke City Alleghany Health District, emphasized the importance of checking your entire body for ticks and paying close attention to areas where they may be hiding.
After coming indoors, taking a shower can help remove any ticks that may have attached themselves. However, if you experience a rash and fever after being bitten by a tick, it is crucial to seek medical attention immediately. Lyme disease is not the only tick-borne illness to be aware of, so it is important to monitor any symptoms that may develop after being bitten.
To prevent further complications, it is important to keep a close eye on your health and seek medical attention if needed. By taking these precautions, you can enjoy the great outdoors safely and avoid any potential health risks associated with tick bites.
