QUOTE- "Lyme disease (Lyme borreliosis) is a complex multisystem illness with varying clinical manifestations.
This tick-borne zoonosis is caused by the spirochetal bacterium, Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (Bbsl) and, worldwide, presents with at least 20 different types of rashes.
Certain cutaneous rashes are inherently interconnected to various stages of Lyme disease."
