Just found a tick

Found it on my thigh a few inches from my genitalia. Took awhile to get it off, but I'm not sure if I got it all. The body broke in half while getting it out, leaving the head still attached. I used some tweezer's, and I managed to get everything that was visible out. I'm still worried about lyme disease though. Any tips anyone can offer me?
 
go to the doctor?

Breaking the tick out was a bad idea. Chances are, there is still some bit of the head inside the body, in which case, yes, you might have some issues.

Where did you go that a tick would lodge itself there? :Q
 
What I do is shave one side.. Then light the other side on fire. Then I stab them when they run out with an ice pick.

You should refrain from sex in tall grass.

I had this happen to me too. They just like to go there, since it's all nice and warm. I actually broke off the head inside too, and I've been fine. But still, go see a doctor.

You shouldn't masturbating furiously in tall grass.

Fixed 😛

 
It's just a freaking tick dude. Take a match and burn him and your flsh and pull his head out. If he didn't really clamp down on you just yank his ass out. If your are this scared of lyme disease then seek a mental doctor.

Sorry to be so harsh, but man the fuck up dude.

I went on a hike in the woods several days this week, but I was wearing pants, and a hoodie.
 
Living on a farm, I can't remember how many ticks I've had *everywhere*. I almost never get the head out when I pull them off. Sometimes the immune system will take a week or so to get rid of it.

If you're really freaked, go to a doctor or clinic and have it removed.

I believe ticks that spread lymes are located in upstate new york. lymes is no fun. Although not fatal, you're compromised for the rest of your life.

Fire. Lots of it.

Actually a match will do. Light a match, blow it out then place the match tip near the tick. Ticky boy should not like the heat and drop off.

Deer ticks carry lyme disease and are very tiny. If it was bigger than a pinhead then it's not a deer tick.

It was about half the size of lincoln's head on a penny.

when I was a kid, I used to play in the woods a lot. I came home one day and was covered in little red things all over my nether region and thighs...chiggers or mites or something, i dunno. my dad gave me some qtips, rubbing alcohol and tweezers and told me to get to work


took a god damn hour to get them all 🙁
 
Damn son that's a good sized tick. And it took you a little while to get it off and you still failed at it? Sheeet, I'da snatched it right off and kept on jerking. 😛

Is this what men have become? Freaked out by a fucking tick? FAIL.

If you knew anything about Lyme disease, you may be concerned a bit also. But then again, you don't believe in washing your hands after you take a shit.
 
Yeah, that's way too big to be anything bad. I've only once had a deer tick on me, and that was last year (live in MN).

The whole flame to the tick thing is a myth and does more harm than good.

Just pull it out grasping as close to the skin as possible (best with tweezers).

And since the body was broken off(killing the tick), nothing he does is going to force the head to come out itself.
