How do you know if a ticks head is still in under your skin?

Yesterday morning (friday) I woke up and while in the shower and saw something by my belly button. I felt it and then pulled it off when I looked at it and saw it had legs, being a girly girl I naturally screamed at the top of my lungs and droped it :) I realized it was a tick. I didnt think to check if the head came out, just plop dropped it right down! It was a little red yesterday, but besides being extremely grossed out, it didnt bother me. Today there is a big red bump where the tick was and the center is really hard. I dont see a black spot or anything, like people have been telling me to look for, or see anything that would be a "head". But it is really red and hard and its kinda itching me. How can I tell if the head is still under my skin? I dont see a hole or anything that I could even stick a needle in, but Im really grossed out and getting more freaked that there is a bug head in me by the minute! PLEASE HELP ME!!!! Any information would be great! Thanks!

if it was a tick then when you pulled it off you life the head in you, light a match and hold it close to the spot were the tick was and if the head is still in there then it will come right out after a while
Reply:Have a doctor look at it, tick are really dangerous, if you get infected it can cause a lot of trouble!
Reply:okay, next time this happens use tweezers or a lighter bc you will rip the body off and leave the head just like you did this time....





i honestly think you should go to urgent care at the nearest clinic for this one.... they should be open on saturdays until at least 5p also.. hurry bc ticks have lyme disease and you should get yourself tested...


good luck
