How to protect yourself from ticks

This year, ticks are more active than ever. The insects have been attacking people and animals for several months. Moreover, they are carriers of dangerous diseases. For instance, a resident of Ternopil was infected with Lyme disease as a result of a tick bite. Fortunately, he sought medical help in time, and doctors prescribed adequate therapy.

However, sometimes medicine is powerless. The infection can slowly kill a person over years, affecting the brain, heart, nervous system, musculoskeletal system, and so on.

Rare diseases are difficult to diagnose. Therefore, help often comes late.

·         During the period of tick activity, it is recommended to wear light-coloured clothing with long sleeves that fits tightly to the body. It is much easier to spot an insect on light fabric.

·         After a walk in nature, it is necessary to carefully examine the body and definitely change clothes. Shaking clothes will not get rid of ticks.

When spending time in nature with animals, it is important to take care of them as well. For this purpose, a special collar is used, as well as a substance that is dripped on the nape, and even special tablets.

If, despite all precautions, it was not possible to protect against ticks, it is necessary to seek help from specialists in a timely manner. They will be able to completely remove the insect and carry out the necessary tests.
