Urgent Tick Care Services in Fond du Lac, WI
You got a tick bite. Now what?
While some tick bites are harmless, others, like those from deer ticks, can transmit harmful bacteria that cause serious diseases, like Lyme disease.
If you or a loved one has been bitten, Forum Health Fond du Lac is here to help.
We offer 30-minute urgent care appointments, Monday – Thursday, to evaluate and determine your treatment needs. From tick removal, preventative care, and symptom assessment to post-exposure prophylaxis for Lyme disease, Dr. Heyrman offers two care options for urgent tick-related issues.
Care Option #1
Are you concerned about a possible infection?
Most cases of Lyme disease can be prevented or cured with prompt treatment. Dr. Heyrman will assess the bite and determine the care you require. Schedule your appointment for acute care including tick removal, tick bite assessment and immediate aftercare.
Care Option #2
Are you presenting symptoms? Symptoms of tick-borne diseases can appear in the weeks following a tick bite. Early symptoms may include:
- Fever
- Rash
- Chills
- Headache
- Fatigue
- Muscle and Joint Aches
- Swollen Lymph Nodes
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Loss of Appetite
Schedule your appointment for an in-depth assessment of your symptoms, even when a tick bite is no longer visible, to determine if they could be related and if beginning Lyme disease treatment is appropriate.
