Details Regarding Living With Lyme Disease

By Iva Cannon


A number of ailments can arise in those who have been bitten by infected animals or insects. Lyme disease is a condition brought on by bacterium called Borrelia burgdofrderi. This is transmitted to human beings bitten by infected black-legged ticks. Living with Lyme disease is possible, particularly with help from trained health care professionals.

Some of the most common signs and symptoms of the disease are fatigue, fever and headache. There is also a skin rash that is common in the infected. It is called erythema migrants or EM. Left untreated, this disease can cause an infection to spread to the nervous system, heart and joints of the body.

Lyme disease should be properly diagnosed before any treatment is employed. Typically the diagnostic process involves assessing the symptoms of patients, which may include the physical findings. Doctors and patients should also consider the exposure possibility, as there are some people who may have a higher risk of being exposed to the infected ticks. Lab testing is also useful in getting the most accurate results.

Generally, many of these cases can be treated in just a month. Usually antibiotics are administered to patients. Every case will differ in many ways, including the severity of the symptoms. Patients should be able to ask questions, voice concerns and otherwise communicate with their doctors regarding treatment and care options. Results of treatment will differ.

Antibiotics are known to be more e effective for people in the early stages. These individuals are expected to make a complete recover in a short period of time. Those who have cardiac or neurological forms of this illness may need intravenous treatment using drugs like penicillin or ceftriaxone. Although rare, patients who were diagnosed later, may have recurring or persistent symptoms following treatment. This is referred to as Post-treatment Lyme Disease Syndrome or PTLDS. These patients can get help managing these post-care symptoms with help from their doctor.

There was, at one time, a vaccine for preventing Lyme disease. However, the manufacturer discontinued the vaccine in the early 2000s. Today, the most effective way to prevent contraction of this disease is avoiding exposure to infected ticks. Warm months, between April and September, are when these ticks are more active. It is still fundamental that people employ preventative actions all throughout the year. Some tips for prevention: walking in the center of trails, avoiding woody or bushy places, using repellents upon going outside, and always checking for ticks upon returning indoors. It is essential to locate and remove ticks quickly.

PTLDS and severe symptoms of the disease are less likely to occur in those who are diagnosed early. People who have a tick bite and live in or frequent areas known for having infected ticks should be observant of their symptoms. In the early localized stage, which occurs between 3 and 30 days after the bite, people might notice a red rash. This might be accompanied by swollen lymph nodes, aches in the joint and muscle, headache, chills, fever and fatigue.

Each situation is different. For some, tick bites go away after a couple of days, which may mean that no Lyme infection is present. However, ticks are capable of spreading across organisms and can cause different types of rashes. People need to do research and utilize all available resources to become well-informed.
