Not every person develops Lyme disease from tick bites, but some ticks have over 90% chance of spreading it. Symptoms for Lyme disease, red rings on the skin around the tick bite, may appear days or weeks later. Do not ignore these symptoms, go to a doctor and they can treat you quite easily with some medicine.
