Probably the head of the tick if you didn't remove it correctly. Dump some mineral oil on the tick, [enough to completely cover it] and then gently twist tick counter clockwise while gently tugging tick out. Do not try to sqeeze it out. It will eventually be dislodged by the body's own defences against foreign objects.
