Lyme Disease Treatment

Lyme Disease Diagnosis and Treatment at Urgent Care & Walk-In Clinic in Aston, PA

When the months begin to get warmer, everyone is eager to get outside after spending a cold winter indoors. It is the time to enjoy outdoor activities either on your own or with your family. However, as the temperature increases, so do your chances you may pick up some pests from outside, like ticks. Being bitten by a tick also carries additional risks and can cause serious health issues.

Lyme Disease is a concerning health issue that is common in this part of the country. You can contract this disease via a tick bite, and it can affect people of all ages. Ticks are small, brown insects that are often found in moist areas like shrubs, tall grass, and piles of leaves.

At AFC Urgent Care Aston, we have board-certified professionals who have years of experience in diagnosing and treating Lyme Disease. We can also help you in removing ticks if they have become embedded in your skin.

We can provide your entire family with quick, affordable, and high-quality medical care. We can identify Lyme Disease and prepare a treatment plan for you to help you get back on a healthy path again. Below is a quick guide about Lyme Disease so you can learn more about this infection.
