Özet
Primary health care is the closest point to the patient. The person who is ill or suspicious of his / her health goes to the family physician, the family health center or the closest health institution. The correct diagnosis and treatment at Primary health care center is of great importance in terms of the cost effectiveness and public health improvement. Lyme arthritis is one of the diseases caused by Borrelio Burgdorferi, spirochete passing through the bite of the hard ticks of Ixodes. Infections may involve the skin, central nervous system, heart, eye and other organs, while in most cases joints are the main site of involvement. A very small percentage of children presenting with arthritis complaints have Lyme arthritis. In Europe, the most common form of arthritis following bacterial infection in children and adolescents is Lyme arthritis. Frequently, joint swelling is accompanied by pain. In this case report, we present a patient with Lyme arthritis who complained of pain, swelling, and inability to walk.
