RE: Tick, Tick, Tick.... BOOM!
Oh no! How are you feeling now after taking the antibiotics?
Just an anxious feeling knowing he had one on his back and it had started to burrow in. I know it can take a few hours before their heads are buried in skin and then can cause issues, but after reading the article I am on 'red flag' alert here.
The antibiotics did the job. It was 1 big dose instead of several pills. After 2 days, I was feeling normal again.
My problem is that I didn't know how long the tick had been on me, probably all day. If you find them before they dig into your skin, it's not a problem. I usually always feel the regular ticks crawling on me, this one was so small that I never felt it.
