ok is it just the head that is stuck or the whole thing under the skin? Do you have any of these symptoms ◦fever,headache, confusion,weakness,numbness,vomiting,difficulty breathing, or palpitations. If you do then you need to be seen by a doctor. But I think you should be fine just get a cotton ball and water. Pour dish liquid in water and soak cotton ball. The hold the cotton ball over the area for 10 mins. this should bring anything out if there is more left. But if the skin is already healed over then you may need to go to a doctor and have it lanced over so you don't get or have Rocky Mountian Spotted Fever!!!!! :-D I hope this helps!!!!!!

You might want to go and see a doctor and get it lanced open just to make sure there is no more of the tick in there. This can be deadly hun!!!! :-D :-(

ok... this may sound crazy but do you think there is a way I could take it out myself?

No I don't bc this would have to be surgically like just cut open. But since it is near your groins area I wouldn't risk doing at home or on your own hun. You don't want to miss and chope it off do you? LOL But really a doctor and professional needs to do it and send it off for a culture to make sure you didn't get any kind of disease ok. This is my best and honest advice!!!!! :-D
