Is There A Cure For Lyme Disease In The Current Times?

By Toni Vang


Lyme Borreliosis also known as Lyme infection is one of the infectious diseases that are brought by bacterial organisms. One of the easiest ways to identify if you have the infection is if you see swellings in the affected areas. That is not the only sign that shows that you have the infection. Some of the other signs are that the swelling does not itch yet you feel fever, some tiredness and serious headache. When it gets to the advanced stages, it can make your movement difficult because your neck stiffs, heart palpitation and severe joint pains. In this piece of writing, we want to see: is there a cure for Lyme disease to help people mitigate the symptoms.

Studies show that after a month of lack of treatment some of the people who suffer from this sickness have repeated episodes of swelling, joint pains and they develop tiredness and memory loss. Let us now look at how the disease is being transmitted. The sickness is transmitted when a tick bites a human being.

Lxodes Genuses of ticks are the most commonly known ticks that spread the infection. For a person to get the sickness, the tick should have attached to your body for not less than thirty-six hours. The disease cannot be transferred to another person from one person. You can also not contract the disease from other animals and foods.

The most peculiar thing about this illness is that, when you go for a test immediately after the tick bite, the chances of you testing negative is very high. The illness can be prevented by avoiding tick bites. Ensure you put on clothes that cover your body fully.

Health hygienists recommend that people should regularly spray their house with pesticides to kill all ticks in the house to reduce their numbers. When the numbers of the ticks are small, you will also reduce the likelihood of the tick sticking on your clothes or when sleeping on the bed. However when you find that one has stuck on your body, you should remove it with tweezers. You should not allow a tick to suck your blood until it gets full because it is the only way you can easily get Lyme.

How does a person treat Lyme infection? Lyme infection symptoms can be very discomforting, and immediately you get a tick bite immediately take antibiotic. Antibiotics are good for reducing the effects of the symptoms as well as treating the illness. You can also go to your health specialist and get the exact medication of what you need.

Another fact to take note of is that, the first symptoms of the infection start showing up withing two days to about three weeks. For this reason, you should take action immediately after the bite. Even so, overusing the antibiotics can be detrimental since the bacteria can form a resistance making the medication ineffective.

Research is still ongoing to look for a proper vaccination. Antibiotics such as cefotaxime and doxycycline have been so effective in treating Lyme disease. If you take less than seventy-two hours after the tick bite, you will reduce the likelihood of severe symptoms.
