why do tick bites take so long to heal?


Question:


Answers:
They have a special saliva that prevents healing, allowing them to suck longer. When removing the tick, it is possible to get their teeth still lached onto the bite, causing the saliva to remain flowing into the bite. That could possibly be why yours is not healing. If the teeth are still on the bite, and they stay on there for a good while, paralisis could occur. You may want to consult a physician. You should also get a blood test to check if you have lime disease.
