[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]My son found one on his lower back last weekend. [/b] I checked, and I wasn't sure if it was a tick or a mole, but he said it came out of nowhere if it was a mole. I googled the picture I took, and the results said it was a lone star tick. He went to urgent care; they identified it as a tick and removed it. They gave him a double dose of doxycycline to take at the same time, and said to come back if he develops any symptoms. The doctor asked if he wanted to keep it, and he said no, so now we can't have it tested. But I told him to make an appointment with his regular doctor so he can ask follow-up questions and see if there's any testing he should have. [/quote] I pulled one off last week too, and this is where it was. [/quote]
