What insect could this be?

Edward, burning the head of the tick won't do anything regarding lyme disease. It would only result in a severe burn that would just make it even more likely to get infected. You shouldn't try to practice medicine unless you give sound advice. If you said to put a cigarette on a live tick, that would make more sense. Burning it wouldn't prevent Lyme Disease anyway but it might make the tick remove itself.

This shows what they look like after they have fed. They do become much bigger as Paul suggested

A tick could be really big if it was feeding for a time before you discovered it.

Burn the head out with a cigarette.

I'm deadly serious, if it was a tick, you will get infected or worse.

Today I checked my arm and found a bug but it's not a tick

It really big

It didn't come out as easy

I live in Belgium

There is still sit of it in my arm

Should I be worried?
