I went to the Appalachian mountains. I left 2 days ago. Just now, I found a tic in a crevice of my ear. It was alive, but wasn’t full of blood. It was still thin. I also don’t feel any bite marks.

I don’t know much about tics or Lyme’s disease. Is there anything I should do or watch out for?

      Yes it has. Just to reiterate though, I am not saying a person should not visit a doctor. Everyone needs to to make their own health decisions and seeing a doctor certainly won’t cause any harm. I’m just passing along the info from the CDC.
