Tick any one?

i had a tick on the bake of my head (like 2 min ago) i normally don't worry about them at all but when i pulled it off i think its head stayed in mine. EWWWW! so is there any way to get it out. can it still cause rocky mountain spotted fever and lime disease with out a body? is this one of the grosses questions you have ever answered?

umm, it was on my head, how was i suposed to use tweezers? it is 12 at night. i cant go to the doctor.

Yes you can get diseases from a tick just because it bit you. You should go to a doctor to make sure the head is out. If not it could get infected.

Get someone to get the tweezers and make sure it's all out. The ques is not gross but ticks sure are ewwwwww!

ewww i'm sry but i couldn't read the whole thing cuz it was to gross

I think you get the diseases from the mouth's sucking parts.
If you ever have occasion to remove a tick again, put tweezers on him right up to the skin (yours), and turn the tick over like he'd do a somersault, and the head will come with the body. Good luck with the itching....

The best is to let a medical proffesional take it out so I suggest you go to the ER right away. Keep what you have so they can test. Right now is the high point for a tick to transfer something to you. Its in their young stage that they carry something. I had one go inside a cut on my leg 2 years ago so no, its not the grossest thing...

PS- Dont pull it out as they may not come out whole. Pour beer or rubbing alchol on them and they pull out themselves.

It can cause that,Go to any one in your house immediately.I mean now I had a tickon my hip 2 of them from being in the woods.Get some help now.I ain't joking.Plz

If you can find someone to remove the head do so but of greater importance at this juncture is to see a physician ASAP in the AM and have him follow the protocol he/she feels most prudent(likely a lyme titer in conjunction with emperical antibiotic treatment...doxycycline with a gram of IM rocephin for good measure).
