Ticks live in tall grass and wooded areas. They are easiest to spot on a person when they are actually sucking blood. Ticks burrow part way into the skin, bite, draw blood, and then drop off. The feeding tick's mouth will be under the skin, but the back parts will be sticking out.
If left untreated, pancreatitis can cause kidney failure, trouble breathing, digestion issues, diabetes, and abdominal pain.
