So yeah. Someone here asked me for advice on something that they suspected was Lyme Disease, but was blown off as "poison ivy" by a physician. After looking at photos of what I recognized as a Lyme circle and asking about specific symptoms, I suggested they consult another physician and get a test. It turns out that Lyme was an issue. When in doubt, don't mess around! Physicians today are encouraged for quantity not quality and might miss symptoms! Advocate for your own health!
#Tick risks vary by region. Here's where diseases have spread and how to stay safe
June 23, 2025
"There are early signs that it could be a bad year for tick bites. In May, the rate of people seeking emergency care for tick bites was the highest it's been since 2019, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
"If you get a tick bite, you're not alone: They happen in every U.S. state, and some 31 million people get tick bites each year.
"Not every tick bite yields disease, since not every tick carries pathogens or bites long enough to transmit them. Still, most reported cases of vector-borne disease (including mosquitoes) come from ticks, which can carry pathogens with terrible consequences.
"Lyme disease is the most common tick-borne disease in the U.S., estimated to affect more than 470,000 people each year.
" 'But ticks can actually expose people in the U.S. to more than a dozen different disease-causing agents,' including #toxins, #allergens, #bacteria, #parasites and #viruses, says Alison Hinckley, an epidemiologist at the CDC's Division of Vector-Borne Diseases. 'The illnesses can range from mild to life-threatening,' Hinckley adds.
"Here are facts to know about these biting critters and tips to stay safe.
"Ticks are slow threats, so prompt action cuts your risk
"With ticks — unlike mosquitoes with their one-and-done sting — there are generally multiple opportunities to reduce your risks. That's because most kinds of ticks need to crawl onto your body, latch into the skin and, in many cases, feed for a while — from several hours to several days — before they get you sick."

Hot take: it’s okay to wear the all #natural #deodorant instead of the #synthetic #deodorants the internet is trying to push you to use. Keep in mind, there are people who have #skin issues or can’t breathe in the #fragrance of the synthetic stuff, so they have no choice to use the natural stuff instead, where it’s more tolerable on the skin, #nose, and #lungs, and where the #ingredient lists are way easier to spot potential #allergens. And contrary to what people online say, there are in fact natural deodorants that work, so it’s a lie that they don’t work. Forcing people to wear the #harsh deodorants is #ableist and #wrong.
