What happens if a tick bites me?

ibleedpanic Asked: What happens if a tick bites me?

You know that spot right in the middle of your back where you can't reach? A tick is right there. /: I don't have anyone I can ask to get it off and it is SO painful to try and take it off myself. I went to my grandmother's house today and I got like five ticks…I got all the others off, but this one just seems to be impossible. I have gotten a tick every single time I've gone to her house, and nothing has ever happened…everyone in my family gets them all the time and sometimes they forget to remove them and they don't ever get sick from it…I know I could possibly get a disease from it, but I just want to know: realistically, what are the chances of that? Is it very important that I remove it or is it just something I should do? I think it might be a brown dog tick, but I'm not sure. It is VERY small and of course not very easy to see…but I am pretty sure that it is not a deer tick. The others I had on me looked like brown dog ticks. I have tried looking in a mirror with a big one and a small one at the same time and it just doesn't work.

If I can't remove it, what should I do? Nothing? Should I put something on it, or will that just make it regurgitate? Please help. /:
