A member asked:
I had a tick in me for roughly 1 week. head was removed, but it formed a big dark, hard lump that itches. it has been 3 months. is this normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tick bite reaction: Perhaps all of the tick was not removed, or you became infected. If the head was in your skin for a week, it is advised that you see your doctor about preventative antibiotics to be sure you did not get a tick disease that can hide away in your body then cause severe problems
