Were you looking for information about Lyme Disease? Lyme desease is a common misspelling of Lyme disease.
Lyme disease is an infection caused by the Borrelia burgdorferi bacterium. It is transmitted to humans by the bites of infected black-legged ticks. A few symptoms of Lyme disease include fatigue, headache, and a characteristic skin rash called "erythema migrans." Lyme disease can usually be treated by taking prescribed antibiotics for a few weeks. Among the steps you can take to prevent Lyme disease are using insect repellent, removing ticks promptly, landscaping, and using pest management.
