Lyme disease is the most common tickborne infectious disease in the United States. It's caused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi, which is spread by deer ticks (also called blacklegged ticks). Common symptoms of Lyme disease include fever, headache, fatigue, and a red rash that sometimes looks like a bull's eye.  

Antibiotics are the only known effective treatment for Lyme disease. There are not enough high-quality clinical trials to evaluate "natural" or other alternative "cures" for Lyme disease, such as oxygen, energy, nutritional, or herbal therapy or essential oils. These therapies haven't been shown to be effective, and some may be harmful.
