What to do if the tick head remains in the dog’s body
If the tick head remains in the dog's body, first use 75% alcohol to disinfect the tick head area and surrounding skin, and then use a hemostat to clamp the tick head and remove it. If you still can't operate it, it is recommended to go to the hospital for treatment. When a tick bites a dog, it releases a large amount of toxins. If the head is left inside the body, the toxins will still enter the body.
If the tick head remains in the dog's body, it may cause neurological symptoms in the dog, such as restlessness, mild tremors, unsteady gait, ataxia, weakness and even paralysis of the hind limbs, and may also infect Babesia canis If you are bitten by a tick, it is recommended to do a full body check immediately.
