A spider bit me.

Edited on Wed Sep-21-05 11:06 PM by moobu2

I didn’t see it or feel it but I have this welt thing on my arm that came up yesterday. It looks like a wasp sting x 10 basically.

1. Keep an eye on it. If you get a "hole" in the center that gets bigger, see

2. yea, I will

I did some online research and most certainly watching for some necrosis, but so far just a lot of swelling and the bite mark area. Now, it looks just like a humongous wasp sting.

4. Yep, keep an eye on it like the

other poster said. I got bit by a brown recluse a few years ago. Not pleasant. :silly:
