Okay i just woke up this morning, 730 after going to bed at like 1230ish and while showering i found a red spot on my upper left thigh. So i freaked out and ripped it out with my figures (it definitley looked like a tick)and then got out of the shower and dapped the tick site with rubbing alcohol. Is it okay to remove it by hand? Im not sure if i got all the tick out, but i ripped out a BIG chunk( i saw little legs pieces too, if that helps). I also live in Connecticut and thats HUGE for lyme disease!.Also, i Dont particularly remember how and when i got the tick exactly(i drank last night)….PLEASE give me advise on dealing with this. Whats NEXT????????
