1. Search for more ticks. Places like behind the knees, bellybutton, armpits, and groin are favorite tick spots. Check everywhere on your body, including your scalp. Have someone check hard to see places for you, like your back.
2. Make sure that the head of the tick is not still embedded in your ear. Have someone check for you.
3. Try to identify the type of tick. Different ticks carry different diseases so knowing the type of tick can help you keep watch for symptoms and/or inform doctors if symptoms do develop. Lyme disease is the big one transmitted via ticks but it is not the only one.
4. The fact that it wasn’t full of blood is a good sign. Breathe. You are going to be just fine. Know what symptoms to look for and try to not worry yourself.
