A deep type of gyrate erythema that follows a bite by an ixodid tick; it is a stage-1 manifestation of lyme disease. The site of the bite is characterized by a red papule that expands peripherally as a nonscaling, palpable band that clears centrally. This condition is often associated with systemic symptoms such as chills, fever, headache, malaise, nausea, vomiting, fatigue, backache, and stiff neck.
