Tic bite in sensitive place
I found a tic on the tip of my penis, thought it was a piece of lint, removed it with tissue, then noticed the "lint" was moving slightly on the tissue - could not positively ID as a tic but was about the right size. Now there appears there's something left slightly inside my skin..part of the head? I generous slathered the area with antibiotic (bacitracin)

If the skin where the tic bite is present builds a rash that spreads or if you develop fever in the coming days, Kindly visit the nearest ER to undergo evaluation and further investigations.
