Answers:
DO NOT smother or burn the tick or stress it out in any way!!! You do not want it to vomit more blood into you, which it does when it is severely stressed.

You MUST use tweezers, and ASAP! Do not wait for a doctor's appointment. The longer the tick is in you, the higher chance of it spreading serious diseases such as Lyme disease. Get the tweezers as close to the tick's mouth as possible, and pull straight out, no twisting. Afterward, disinfect the area on your skin, wash your hands, and disinfect the tweezers. Put the tick into a baggie to save for testing. http://www.lymediseaseassociation.org/Re...Health Question & Answer

Ticks breathe through their abdomen. Cover the tick with a big blob of vaseline jelly, thick enough to cut off the air to the little *&%*. After a short time, the tick will back out on his own, and you can pick it up with the tweezers.

Alternately, you can use a lit cigarette or match to warm their backside. When it becomes too warm, the tick will back out to look for a new place. Careful not to burn or kill the tick in this manner, as you want him to disengage himself before you try to take him out.

Don't try to pull the tick out until he's pulled out himself. They will lose their head and it will infect your skin.Health Question & Answer

Get a match and put it on the tick then slowly pull it out with tweezers. BE CAREFUL THO... if you pull the head of the body and leave the head inside you then you have done no justice and will have to go to th ER. Get it out as soon as you can to prevent lime disease i also recommend you go to the hospital anyway so to be safe. Lime disease isn't anything to take for granted.Health Question & Answer

you can hold a lighter to a needle.

when the needle is hot poke your skin UNDER the tick's head, it will back out and you can flick it off.

if you pull the tick straight off, the head will stay under your skin and burrow through your flesh, throwing ice grenades until it finds your vagus nerve - which it will fiddle with until your heart stops.

oh, no...Health Question & Answer

You have to use tweezers or something to grab it's head, If the squishy body part separates from the head, it stays in your skin and can get sore and infected. Might try alcohol or cooking oil to suffocate it and might let go. sometimes they fall off when full.Health Question & Answer

The tweezers as close to your skin as possible will work but make sure you get all the head out.You really should let a doctor get it out so that none of that nasty little bugger stays in you.I have had two of them.DoNot burn it out nor dig at it.Good luck.Health Question & Answer

Go to the doctors if you are not familiar on getting them out. You need to make sure you get its head. Other wise it will continue to eat & burrow in your skin with no body. Health Question & Answer
