I went to the Appalachian mountains. I left 2 days ago. Just now, I found a tic in a crevice of my ear. It was alive, but wasn’t full of blood. It was still thin. I also don’t feel any bite marks.

I don’t know much about tics or Lyme’s disease. Is there anything I should do or watch out for?

    @BackOnMyBS in Rhode Island we can call our Primary Care Physician and tell them we got bitten by a tick if it is within 72 hours. They will prescribe a dose of antibiotics over the phone. Then again we live in a Lyme disease hotspot, so your mileage may very.
