Should I have gotten some kind of hyper plague by now? What's the concern with leaving the head in and do they always bury their heads under the skin? It's always just seemed like they've had a couple pincers in and that's in when I've yanked them out.

Oh, and !@#$ yourself, OP - that stuff is vile.
If you leave them in it is possible to get infected, beyond that I don't know.
