Make the Diagnosis: “Lime” Disease. Don’t Blame the Ticks.

Presentation

A 24-year-old woman went to urgent care with several strangely shaped linear lesions on her leg that was accompanied by a burning skin sensation. She developed the lesion just a few days after starting a job as an outdoor bartender at a local beach resort, but she didn’t think the lesion looked like a sunburn because it looked more hyperpigmented than her usual sunburns.
