Your exam reveals nothing remarkable except mild pain when you palpate the injured area. Vital signs are normal. What is the next step?

Which type of pathogen causes Lyme disease? Bacteria fungus parasite virus
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Bacteria

Explanation:

Lyme disease is a bacterial infection transmitted by ticks, very common in North America and Europe.

Lyme disease is caused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi, but transmission occurs through ticks. They carry these bacteria and can transmit them to humans through bites. Ticks are brown and stick to the skin, where they can stay for a long time while sucking blood from the host. The preferred locations of the human body for ticks are the armpits, scalp and groin area.

To transmit the disease, ticks must remain attached to the host's skin for at least 36 to 48 hours. The smaller the tick, the greater the chance that they will transmit Lyme disease, as they are more difficult to detect.
