I just discovered as I removed my trousers (commando) I noticed a small brown spot on my glans. Closer inspection revealed it was a small a tick. I was able to remove it with a pair of tweezers. There is a tiny spot where it was attached. I am not having any irritation from it. I decided to put a little anti itch cream on that area. Usually the site of a tick bite will become red and itch. Has this ever happened to anybody here? What did you treat the bite with?

Best thing to do is get any poison sucked out
Agree with the above poster - if any poison is left in the penis it will fall off, but 3-5 minutes of sucking will usually get all of the poison out.
On a more serious note - check carefully whether you got the whole thing out (I doubt it with tweezers - but check with some sort of magnifying glass), douse the wound regularly with some sort of alcohol or antiseptic, and if there is *any* sign of swelling or heat in the area then assume you have an infection, and you probably need to get to a doctor to have the rest of the tick removed and be put on a course anti-biotics. Or risk losing the dick, and noone wants that.
It's been over 3 hours that I posted about it and I am not experiencing any discomfort at all. No pain whatsoever. I think that is a good sign.

It's a myth that if you don't get all of the tick out that the remnants stay and poison you. You'll more than likely be fine. In the very rare chance that it happens again put something rich in alcohol (actual alcohol or hand sanitiser) on the tick and it will let go easier and then pull it off with tweezers.
I don think I'm going to have a reaction at the site. There is no redness or any pain at all.

Question is how long was it there? Had it been feeding, was the body bloated? You true main concern is if it carried Lyme disease & if it transferred to you. You should have a Lyme test done with your next physical just to be sure as some people have no symptoms for years, then suddenly it wreaks havoc on your body. Would be funny though if you had a "bulls-eye" on your cock, a real photo opp., but best to not have Lyme. If you still have the tick body they can test it for Lyme. Good luck.

I probably didn't explain it properly... a lot of ppl over think that if some of the tick stays in you that that part is still alive and it will keep poisoning you until you remove it. My method of removing ticks works really well too.. I've had to get shitloads off dogs.

Around here, many walk-in clinics will treat any tick bite with a ten day course of antibiotic as prophylaxis for Lyme disease. As someone who has had it for thirty years, I can definitely say it is no fun.
I was at our site at the nudist camp a couple of years ago, I had finished cleaning up and dropped the cover on the Rubbermaid storage shed . A pissed off hornet came out and bit me in the head of my dick. The head started to swell significantly and I yelled to my wife to suck out the poison . She laughed herself silly, the neighbors did, and anyone who heard about it laughed .should have taken a picture of it, it was impressive.
My totally naked masculine body often has tick bites. ( take a shower each day and pick off these nice animals ) . The masculine body can stand more bites of insects . It is a tough game to experience insects bites , like ants , beetles or butterfly caterpillars. In a unsatisfying edging session this brings the naked male body up to PNR 9,9.

Full disclosure: I don't have a penis. After removing a tick, I apply alcohol or peroxide to the area. Given the sensitive nature of the area, I suggest peroxide. It is important to disinfect a wound. My tick bites dont always get red or itch. I put vitamin E oil or Honey from an Australian tea tree. I forget what it is called. The oil is cheap, the honey is very expensive. Either will prevent a scar. Apply several times a day. For itch, given the area, I recommend taking Benedryl or Dramamine (either is diphenhydramine). This may cause drowsiness or hyperactivity. Weird, but true. I'm sensitive to it, and staying awake on diphenhydramine makes me trip. Know yourself. A good tpoical solution is calamine lotion or hydrocortisone. If the site opens again, apply neosporin, bacitracin, or triple antibiotic ointment. When that is fully absorbed, go back to applying vitamin E to prevent a scar. Good luck.

If you experience nausea, stomach upset or headache or mild confusion in the next few days, seek medical attention immediately. There are several new incurable diseases ticks are spreading. Early treatment could save your life.
ETA: I just realized how old the OP is. I sincerely hope you have fully recovered by now.

There was no reaction to the tick bite. The site of the bite is completely normal. It did not turn red or itch. All is as before the bite.
But it was painful pulling the tick off with tweasers.
Although the subject is a serious one, I cannot help but think of the old story of the gigolo in the leper colony who was doing very well until his business started falling off.
Some years ago, while spending a sunny day at a nudist beach, I got stung by a bee on the shaft. It swelled considerably in a matter of 15 minutes, read and bloated all the way to the hood; amusing initially, but not really... I left the beach and got an anti viper-bite kit from the closest pharmacy and took the strong allergy pill it contained. It helped, and in about 1-2 hours it was much better.
