    The following emergency measures should be taken after being bitten by a tick:

    Tick removal: To remove the tick, you can use paraffin oil to drop it around the wound to isolate the air around the tick, and the tick will fall off on its own due to lack of oxygen.

    Partial destruction and disinfection: The wound can be disinfected from the inside out with iodophor, and then the wound is bandaged with gauze. If the wound is not disinfected after being bitten by a tick, symptoms such as redness, pimples, and ulcers may occur, and severe patients may also have symptoms of systemic infection such as fever and chills.

    Medications**: After being bitten by a tick, you need to use anti-inflammatory, anti-itch, pain-relieving, anti-infective drugs, such as penicillin, mupiroxin ointment, etc. If you have a fever, you should also take drugs such as diclofenac sodium and aminopyrine.

    Note that the above drugs should be used roughly, and you need to follow the doctor's advice.

    Fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (abbreviated as collapse fever) is an acute infectious disease caused by the novel bunyavirus. Tick bites are the main route of transmission and can also be transmitted through direct contact with the blood or bloody secretions of an infected person.

    The clinical manifestations are mainly fever, thrombocytopenia and leukopenia, which are currently non-specific** and have a high mortality rate.

    Transmission route: Tick bites the host animal carrying the pathogen and then bites the main human transmission route; Transmission can also be caused by contact with the blood, excretion, and secretions of patients; The possibility of aerosol transmission cannot be ruled out. Susceptible populations are generally susceptible. Residents of forests and hilly areas, tourists, laborers, and close contacts of patients are at high risk.

    The prognosis of most patients is good, but the prognosis is poor due to the presence of underlying diseases, elderly patients, psychiatric and neurological symptoms, obvious bleeding tendency, and hyponatremia. At present, there is no specific drug, and the symptomatic and supportive effect is good when taken in time.
