Could I still get Lyme disease or any other disease?

Today morning while having shower, I found a small tiny tick bite and that couldn’t have bitten me for more than 1hr and I grabbed it and pulled it out and the head was completely outside. So I am sure that I have taken it completely out. Could I still get Lyme disease or any other disease?

  • You are in the safe side. For a Lyme disease to occur, a tick has to be attached in your flesh for at least 24 hrs. You worry too much… so chill out!
