    You must get it checked because it kind of does look like deer tick bite which would give you lyme disease....but if you get on the antibiotics right away for 30 days you can get rid of it totally....it does similar to my bite however there is a chance it's some other bite .....

    get it treated asap. symptoms can appear many months later at which point it is very difficult to manage.
