At greatest risk of disease are children between 5 to 9 years and adults over 55 years. Clinical skin manifestations of lyme disease are divided into three stages: Localised Lyme disease, Early disseminated Lyme disease, both a and Late Lyme disease, which occur months or years after infection. Lyme disease can also affect other part of the body like central nervous system, musculoskeletal system, heart, the eyes and other organs.
