Good morning, i just found a tick on my 4yo back, it attached itself during the night. do i have to take him to a dr to check it out or wait to check for signs of illness first?

SKIN DOCTOR: See a DERMATOLOGIST [skin doctor] right away in order to remove the tick. Long term illness will prevail if not removed now. Look up LYME DISEASE and know what can happen.
