Fatigue
Fatigue is a common sign of infection. After a tick bite, it's a typical symptom that accompanies the rash, pounding headache and fever. The intensity is more pronounced than feeling tired after a long day.
Instead, it's more of a full-body and mind fog that leaves people unable to get out of bed or accomplish everyday tasks. If energy levels don't increase after a day or two, schedule a doctor's exam.
