Is there any way I can treat myself without going to the doctor? I have an insect bite on my left arm and a friend told me he had the same problem last year and he said I might develop Lyme disease. May I use antibiotics for this problem? There is not much pain involved, but the swelling is present…
Yes, but which exactly and in what dosages you cannot know until you consult a doctor. And you should also know that if left untreated or treated poorly, this problem might escalate into serious complications. So don’t play with it, it is a serious thing and must be dealt with properly and in time.
