Introduction It has come to notice that Lyme disease is a bacterial infection known as spy-ro-keet. This is according to a report given by Benach, and Edward, 1988. Lyme disease can spread so easily when domestic animals are not properly prevented from these ticks. Tick is a parasite that can spread so easily in animals especially in domestic animals. Since the domestic animals are tamed by man, you find that the chances of a man getting in contact with a tick are so high. There have been many cases of people complaining of skin rashes, swollen joints, flu, and severe headache not knowing actually the cause of this disease. Severe symptoms are associated with this disease and need to be treated as soon as the symptoms are noticed. Some of its symptoms include swollen joints, skin rash, flu, severe headache and fever, muscle pain, stifle neck, and swelling of knees. Lyme disease can be transmitted from one person to another when an infected tick bites you and then goes and bites another person. So the main transmitter of Lyme disease is an infected tick. You find that since some people do not actually notice a tick bite, it is noticed that some people do not know if they have the disease so it can take long before someone notices the disease. During the early stages of the disease, doctors usually investigate the early symptoms of the disease in order to confirm whether you have the disease but during the later stages of the disease, doctors usually use lab tests in order to confirm whether you have the disease. The ecology matters a lot in the spread of the disease. Anthropogenic factors and urbanization are associated with the spread of Lyme disease in the human population. You find that due to urbanization in many areas, the expansion of suburban neighborhoods had led to deforestation and increased border contacts between human and tick-dense areas. Due to the increased population in these areas then you find that most of the people live together with the animals and some even live in the same building with the animals and hence as a result, you find that there is close contact between the animals with the ticks and human beings and you find that spreading, in this case, becomes easier. A brief history of the disease The first record of Lyme disease was discovered in the year 1883 when several skin disorders were associated with the disease. The research was conducted based on the skin disorder to come out with the real cause of these symptoms. Arvid Afzelius who is a researcher carried out this research and discovered that the skin disorder led to rashes on the skin as a result of a bite by the name Ixodes tick. This skin disorder is normally found in the early stages of this infection and leads to Lyme disease. Early stages of the disease According to the two scientists Benach, and Edward, 1988, It is noticed that one of the early symptoms of Lyme disease is skin rush, which actually appears after a period of 30 days immediately after the tick bite. The rash by the name erythematic migrants immediately appears at the site of the tick bite which begins as a small red spot that later grows bigger and bigger. The skin rash may cause discomfort in the body since they lead
