re: Tick bite..am I going to die?

Got bit by a tick recently and I actually pulled it off about 5 seconds after I felt the bite.

The area around it has swollen and the red area is starting to run down my arm.

fricking ticks. it was about the size of a piece of pepper.

i wanted to grab a hot needle & jam it into the red part but i've been told maybe not the best idea.

should i go to a walk-in and get some antibiotics?

just ignore it?

will i get aids?
