Unusually painful tick bite

Well, yesterday I was walking through the woods. I live in Florida. Noticed a tick on me a couple hours later, on top of my foot. Ripped him off, head and all. Came out clean. Now I've just woke up, my foot is very sore. It actually hurts to walk. The sore is very dark, almost bruised it seems. Very small but horribly painful. I'm only 31 years old so it's nothing to do with easily bruised skin. If you might know what's going on, please help.

    you must go see a Doctor as soon as possible.

    I AM SURPRISE YOU DID NOT USE GOOGLE.

    You must go SEE YOUR Doctor.

    Tick bites are often harmless, but they can cause allergic ... rash, or joint pain, it's important that you seek medical care right away.

    see a DOCTOR

    Ussually within 48 hours to prevent lyme disease.

    Take care.
