If you have been hiking in the woods or even just playing with a plate in nature, know that these little bloodsuckers can cause great harm to your health if the bites are left untreated.

Steps

1. 1 Remove the tick by holding the head (the brown part in your skin) with tweezers or fingers. Do not hold it by the stomach, as you can squeeze the infected fluid into the wound.
2. 2 If you cannot reach the tick easily, do not use force. Lubricate it with petroleum jelly or thick oil, and then gently remove.
3. 3 Wash the bite thoroughly with soap.
4. 4 If the wound becomes inflamed, see your doctor. Symptoms include softness, blistering, redness, swelling, and red streaks from the bite.

Tips

• When you reach the tick, crush it.
• If the tick is large and gray, see your doctor. He sucked your blood for a long time.
• Do not use ointments that promote the spread of bacteria, apply Betadine. It is a remedy for infectious diseases!

Warnings

• Never try to squeeze out the body of a tick.
