Borreliosis
Borreliosis is an infectious disease caused by bacteria of the genus Borrelia, which are transmitted to humans through the bites of infected ticks.
The main pathogen in Europe and North America is Borrelia burgdorferi.
Symptoms of Borreliosis
The disease can cause various symptoms, including fever, fatigue, headaches, and skin rashes.
In the early stages, borreliosis may present with the following symptoms:
- A skin rash known as “migratory erythema,” which typically appears at the site of the tick bite;
- Fever;
- Headaches;
- Fatigue;
- Muscle and joint pain.
If left untreated, the disease can progress to more severe stages that may affect the joints, heart, and nervous system. Chronic borreliosis can lead to arthritis, neurological disorders, and serious heart problems.
Diagnosis and Treatment
The diagnosis of borreliosis is based on clinical symptoms and laboratory tests, such as serological studies to detect antibodies to Borrelia.
Treatment typically involves a course of antibiotics, which may vary depending on the stage of the disease and the overall condition of the patient.
