Is There A Cure For Lyme Disease

By Enid Hinton


Millions of people enjoy spending time in wilderness areas that are wooded and have leafy ground cover. This terrain is a perfect breeding ground for ticks. Many ticks carry viral and microbial diseases that can be serious and cause tremendous discomfort for the host whether human or animal. Knowing the dangers of being bitten may cause campers and hunters to ask their doctors is there a cure for Lyme disease?

Knowledge of symptoms of this malady will prepare most people for the worst should they get bitten by a tick. Early identification of problems is beneficial for treatment and curing the patient. After removing the tick you may notice a rash at the injury site. This rash will grow and a line of irritation will separate from the initial lesion creating the appearance of a bulls eye. It will not itch or feel sore but it will be warm to the touch. It will disappear within a few days and reappear later.

Other symptoms include fatigue, chills, fever, serious headaches, joint and muscle pain and swollen lymph nodes. All of these issues including the rash will come and go thus causing confusion when diagnosing the real cause of the problem. The longer the time between the bite and treatment the more symptoms you will see.

More rashes may occur on other parts of your body as time passes and you may experience Bell's Palsy, a condition that causes the facial muscles to dissipate and weaken. Inflammation in the spinal cord will cause severe neck and head pain and random sharp pain may disturb sleep. These symptoms will eventually stop whether you seek treatment or not. Unfortunately, those who do not get treatment can suffer other more serious symptoms.

Over sixty percent of untreated victims will experience arthritic pain and swelling in their major joints such as knees. The arthritis caused by this disease is different from normal arthritis. The symptoms are more severe and require different treatment styles. Further complications in over five percent of untreated persons include chronic neurological issues such as sharp pains, tingling and numbness in extremities and short term memory loss.

Most physicians treat their patients with massive long term doses of anti biotic. The most common application is through oral consumption but some patients receive injections. The treatment may last up to thirty days and those who delay treatment may require intravenous treatment and be confined to the hospital.

Doctors are restricted as to how much anti biotic a patient is allowed to have. The health issues that are common with exceeding the limitations set by law are serious and can include death. There are several listings online that promise relief through making fresh fruit smoothies and adding fresh nutrients to the recipe. Raw fruit and vegetables is key to most of the nutritional solutions for this problem. The theme of them is to kill the virus naturally and flush the remnants from your body.

The best way to be certain of a cure for this infection is to see your physician as soon as possible. Not all ticks carry this bacteria but it may be wise to be safe and check with those who know what to look for if bitten.
