Removal of tick is curative, but resolution may take days-weeks.
Proper removal of the tick is important.
Tick should be grasped as close to the skin surface as possible with blunt curved forceps, tweezers, or gloved hands. Steady pressure without crushing the body should be used. After tick removal, the site should be disinfected.
Traditional methods of tick removal using petroleum jelly, topical lidocaine, ﬁngernail polish, isopropyl alcohol, or a hot match head are ineffective and may induce the tick to salivate or regurgitate into the wound.
