Protecting Your Family in Western New York
Ticks are common in wooded and grassy areas across Western New York. Most tick bites are harmless, but deer ticks can spread Lyme disease.
Remove a tick as soon as you find it:
Symptoms usually appear 3 to 30 days after a bite. Watch for a red, expanding rash that may look like a bullseye, fever, chills, fatigue, headache and joint pain.
Visit urgent care if you cannot remove the whole tick, if a rash or fever develops, or if the tick was attached for more than a day. In some cases, a single dose of antibiotics given soon after the bite can help prevent Lyme disease.
See all services at our 3 clinics →Use insect repellent, wear long sleeves and pants outdoors, stay on trails and check yourself, your kids and your pets after time outside.
Our providers can remove ticks and check for signs of Lyme disease. Walk in at AFC Urgent Care in Buffalo, Depew or Orchard Park seven days a week, or save your spot online.
