The head of the tick will not spread disease, as the tick's stomach, which contains the bacteria, is no longer attached.

Potentially, yes. Tick paralysis is loss of muscle function from a tick bite, usually a female tick, and primarily affects children. The tick attaches to feed on blood and during feeding toxins enter the child's bloodstream. The child will develop an unsteady gait due to weakness in the lower extremities. This weakness will eventually make it's way up into the abdomen and upper extremities. Flu like symptoms can develop and there can be breathing difficulties. Finding the tick and removing it will remove the source of the toxins and recovery from tick paralysis is fast.

That's a good question. Most sources say you should remove the tick immediately, probably with tweezers, being careful to get the head as well as the body. If the tick has not yet started sucking blood - it isn't swollen - then removing it can prevent the transmission of disease. On the other hand, if the tick is already swollen with blood, removing it won't prevent that. One source suggested that the tick will eventually drop off on its own. Ticks need a blood meal in order to reproduce, so the best reason to remove the tick is to kill it, preferably by immersing it in alcohol, so that it doesn't get to make babies!
