A member asked:
My friend removed ticks from the dog and put into and water bottle and i drank it by a mistake few minutes before. it had 10 ticks. what shoud i do?

Don't get ticked off: Did you swallow any of the ticks or just the juice? Depending on what you swallowed, how much blood was in the ticks your body will likely digest them, but what I can not guarantee is whether you will have a reaction. Best to see your doctor and get a better history and physical. Good luck.
