Suggest treatment for a itchy lump on the armpit
Patient: I have removed a deer tick from under my arm and it has now developed a knot around where the tick was attached and itches terribly. Do I need to seek medical help for this. I have pulled off several ticks in the past with no side effects whatsoever. Thanks so much for your advice. Doctor: Hi,It seems that there might be having allergic local reaction due to tick bite.Take Benadryl or cetrizine medicine for 2-3 days.Apply triple action cream locally.Avoid perspiration.Ok and take care.
