What Happens When A Tick Head Gets Stuck Inside You?

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    The tick head is a foreign object that the body reacts to the way it would to splinter: Redness and swelling, infection, sometimes the presence of pus. This is a process that will eventually--in most cases--force the object out. This process can be aided by digging the tick head out with a flame-sterilized needle and/or trying to grab it with tweezers.
