The so called "Erythema migrans"  a red circle that gets bigger (migrates) around the area of the tick bite (or did they stich?) anyway, other early symptoms are headache, pain in the joints and muscles gastrointestinal problems sometimes a fewer feel all much like you are getting a cold. should you really be in the early stages of a possible Lyme disease it is treatable with oral Antibiotics (tetracyclins, amoxicillin or makrolides)

I would say: see a doctor. however. I have had this before. and the doctor said its a bacteria caused by wearing new or long-time stored clothes because you have sensitive skin it's not dangerous and it  will go away eventually however he gave me some kind of cream to put on the spots it will get rid of them faster. and he also told me to wash every thing I buy from the stores b4 wearing it. \nif you have insurance. see the doctor

It could be Lyme disease, it mimics many autoimmune disorders.

Lyme Disease ( commonly misspelled as Lime or Lyme's ) symptoms may show up fast, with a bang, or very slowly and innocuously. There may be The Lyme Rash \ninitial flu-like symptoms with fever, headache, nausea, jaw pain, light sensitivity, red eyes, muscle ache and stiff neck. Many write this off as a flu and because the nymph stage of the tick is so tiny many do not recall a tick bite. The classic rash may only occur or have been seen in as few as 30% of cases (many rashes in body hair and indiscreet areas go undetected). Treatment in this early stage is critical. \n\nIf left untreated or treated insufficiently symptoms may creep into ones life over weeks, months or even years. They wax and wane and may even go into remission only to come out at a later date...even years later. \nThe real problem is that all those symptoms are commom to several diseases infectious or not.

You would see a dark spot.  If you get a circular rash, you could have Lyme disease.  Watch the area carefully for signs of rash or infection.  Be well!

Lyme disease is caused by a parasite carried in deer ticks.  The disease itself is autoimmune in nature, but requires pre-infection with the bug borrelia burgdorferi.\n\nAnti-phospholipid is another autoimmune condition related mostly to lupus.  As a component of anti-phospholipid, patients generate an antibody called anti-caridiolipin which is also present in about 40% of patients with Lyme disease.  Although the two conditions have this in common, they are not the same.

not all ticks cause lymes disease.  Deer ticks are the ones to be concerned with and they are so small you cant see them any way.  Wood ticks are big and cause no problems really.  (they can but rarely)  just remove with a tweezers and then put some anisepitic on.  watch carefully and you sould be fine.  if you are really concerened after removing the tick store it in a vile or something so if  you have to go to the hospital take the blood sucker with you so medical has some idea what they are working with.\n\nYou are not screwed cause one latches on.  I have had them on me and removed them from my kids and dog.  All are fine.\n\nhttp://www.lyme.org/ticks/tick.html\n\nlook at this website.  lots of helpful info.

We need more info.  Are you diabetic or do you have decreased circulation in your legs?  Do you have any calf pain while walking or any pain associated with these lesions?  What ointments has the dermatologist had you use?  What other medications are you on?  Do you keep your body clean in general?  Do they smell? Does the skin around these lesions look normal or is there any discoloration, either around the lesions or to the entire leg?  Do you have any allergies?  Dude, need the info before trying to  help you.

Lyme disease is caused by Borrelia burgdorferi, an aerobic bacterium.

I would contact your doctor is you develop any unusual symptoms like fever, swelling, rash, pain. Just keep a close eye on it and keep it clean. My brothers used to get tick bites when we lived out in the middle of no where and they are still alive and kickin.  Good luck.

the sad thing is ticks arent that big of a problem, weve just blown it up unrealistic proportions. lime disease is about as deadly as the common flu, and easier to spot. sure it makes life harder for a while and it needs to be treated but if you start to get a target shaped mark on your body head into the doctors. my friend had it and he's fine. and if your saying it was a baby because it was small and red, it probably was a deer tick (the most common carrier of the virus) but dont get worried

It does sound like Lyme disease. I would definitely get tested. With Lyme, early detection is key in treatment, so you will want to call your doctor immediately, especially if your symptoms began after a tick bite or an unexplainable rash. Please keep in mind though that there are other diseases that can present with similar symptoms such as Celiac Disease. Celic Disease is very common (1 in 133 have it) and it has such a wide array of symptoms that most people don't ever get diagnosed. Many doctors think that the only people who are losing weight and have diarrhea can have CD, but that is absolutely not the case. CD can present as lethargy, tiredness, and joint pains. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia (unexplainable pains) and depression (due to extreme lethargy) and those symptoms didn't resolve themselves until I went gluten free after being diagnosed as Celiac. Now I live my life instead of sleeping it away. Definitely talk to your doctor and if he's not receptive to testing for Lyme or Celiac, find a new doctor. At 15 you shouldn't be going through all of this. The earlier you get answers, the better. If you want more information on Celiac, go to www.celiac.com or www.glutenfreeforum.com.

Smart lady--catch it put in jar--just in case--I do the same thing with wood ticks. I put them in jar with a little alcohol--my guess is it's probably just an albino or a young one--not sure what say beyond that--I'm not a doctor maybe try http://www.webMD.com or http://www.mayoclinic.com/ you could always call a local university and ask for an expert in the biology department. maybe Google "white mosquito" or "mosquito identification." Hope it's not serious. Try not to worry it's probably nothing. Good Luck :-)

They're called sweat pimples. Nothing to worry about. They form when you sweat alot on your legs, normally starting about now and ending when the weather cools. Just pop them like zits, but don't squeeze them to death. They'll stay red and swollen and look like they'll need popping for a few days after but they won't, just let them heal. In the mean time, do wear shorts and let your legs breathe. That's probably most of your problem.\n\nNote: You probably don't have lyme disease, chiggers, and I doubt you're getting bit by spiders. This is a normal thing that every male I know gets, including myself.

not sure if you mean a physical mark on the skin but if so how about a sore?
