I'm a 53 year old woman who has a lump on her head as if someone put a pencil eraser under my scalp.
I had been in Iowa where we did see ticks. A week later I pulled what I thought was a scab from where that lump is now. I didn't look to see what it was.
Two weeks later I found the lump as it was very tender. My doctor kind of blew me off when I asked about Lyme, and just gave me Bacitracin.
She said it was inflamed and she could see where I pulled off a scab. It's now 2 weeks later. The pain is gone, but the lump is still there. I feel the need to check it out further.
I'd appreciate your help in locating a doctor around the Twin Cities area. Or do you think I'm over-reacting and there's really no need?
Thank you so much, Tricia
