Tick Bite

---

Yesterday I was in the shower and was washing my balls and found a tick attached to my sack. When I carefully pulled it out, it started dripping blood and as fast as I could I applied A LOT of pressure to the hole and I did not lose much blood. today I woke up and it looks as if the little sucker bit a vein, and there is a large black "sploge" of darkness underneeth the skin. Is this just a little blood around the vein or should I get it checked out? Thanks.

ewwwwwwwwwww lol sry cant help u there

wow yeah say eww then laugh at him.Its probably just the blood waiting to absorb I wouldnt be to worried, but next time dont sue your hands yo ucan get an infection that way.

It sounds like some clotted blood that will eventually be absorbed.

ugh..I had a tick on my foreskin scar about 6 years ago. It was very scary but I caught mine before it was taking blood. I still have a little imprint on my skin from where it was but doesn't seem to give any problem.

Im a fucking tick magnet, I get them damned near everytime I go into the woods.
Iv dug the fuckerse outta my ass, my legs, my head, my neck my arm pits my fucking chest and back.
They love the warm areas, especially where two bits of skin fold over like in your ass crack or around your balls.

Your biggest concer with a tick is removal.
first when you get it out, let the fucker bleed and rinse shit away from inside. little bastards carry all kinds of shit.
second when removing them watch out to make sure you get the head. the head breaks off easy, and that head inside you and healing over can mean fucking death.
Now lets assume you got the head out. do some research and start watching for shit like symptoms of lime desease.
They cary all sorts of shit but not knowing wher you live, I cant ell ya exactly what the bastard may carry.

Genrally there is one rule to ticks. Pull them gently, and steady. You can use a needle heated up and stuck in the skin in front of them to encourage them to back out but thers been many bad results from that. You can cover them in vaseline and they suffocate so soon start backing out and trying to leave on thier own, but anything that removes thier air supply, also encourages them to get sick and puke and spew shit into your system that can lead to bad bad shit.
Iv been down the road to being sick by a tick before.
about 7 days after I removed a couple from me, I was isck as shit, couldnt stand up and passed out onym couch. I woke up at a hospital after my bitch (X wife) called him and he came and carried me to his truck and took me.
I had missed the head, got sick as fuck and spent a lot of time still sick and an assload on meds to get over it.
It wasnt lime desease.
what I recall ti being diagnosed as was rocky mountain spotted fever. It may not be what it was but something close to that.
I picked up the ticks on an adventure along the colorada border in the book cliffs and along the delorous triangle.
Not a good fucking time.

You look like a fucking idiot but the sugested protection is to avoid grassy places, cedar trees, and wear your socks over your pants to cut off entry to your legs.
I personally always wear a stupid looking round, cloth hat that keeps the sun off my bald ass head and I often wear shorts for hiking.
If ya catch em before they start sucking blood and under your skin, they are not a real big deal to deal with.
While I look retarded I also wear a cat, flea and tick collar around my ankle when Im hiking in places that Iv had problems before.

BTW.
My entry point looked alot like yours does. If it were me ? Id make a trip to a clinic, not an ER if your not sick, but a clinic or somepalce they can get you in fast as shit with out he ER costs.
When Iv removed ticks and not missed the head, I never had a hole like that with a spot down inside it.
Iv had prolly atleast 100 ticks in my lifetime, once I spent an hour digging 11 out of me from one trip. Iv had alot of experience looking at tick bites, yours doesnt sound good.
It may also be because it was on your nutsack, the skin is thinner there, bruises and small spots pf blood trapped under the skin may act different there. Maybe its nothign to worry about and your fine, but knowing what I know.... Id get it looked at as soon as I could.
That head is the size of a fucking pin tip, its hard to see with out a magnafying glass if its still attached to teh tick or nto when ya dig it out, since you dont have him to look at now, Id get the bite site looked at.
To me atleast it sounds either like a head is still inside, or its possible to jsut be an infection.

There isnt a much better way to get a tick out thatn your fingers.They make a tick plier, but who the hell keeps one of those around or is gonna run out and buy one when they have a tick in them?using tweezers can crush and kill the tick, spill his guts into your entry wound, and end up killing you. short of that its easy to apply too much pressure with tweezers and snap that little fucks head off inside you.If you dont have a specailized tick removal tool, your fingers are prolly your best bet at doing it semi safe.and a tick bite is ALWAYS cause for concern. If you get he bastard out whole or not.Fucking parasite, shit spreading little bastards, that can ruin your life or fucking kill you.Thats just the north american variety, look into ticks that live around the globe, little fuckers can make you wish you were dead, or lead to being dead, tropical ones can make you sick enough to pray for death for weeks before actually killing you.ANY Tick bite is a reason for concern.WHile Im standing on a soap box, preaching the dangers of these little bastards let me say that you pricks that have dogs and cats and dont btoher with flea and tick protection and live in areas where thers a need for it, you shit slurpers piss me off as well.If your gonna have an animal take care of it you piece of shit.
