Answer:
does she have spider-strength, spider-agility, spider-sense, or the ability to stick to walls? if not it's probably just a pimple

Yes! It can! Watch it carefully! Its probably nothing to worry about and some over the counter bug bite medicine should relieve the itching and lessen any swelling, but watch her for multiple bites!! If you have the small brown spiders in your area that make the funnel webs, they leave bites like this. I was bit multiple times by this spider (I'm an adult female, 5'10 healthy weight) and the venom from 10-12 bites (i got at night while sleeping) was too overwhelming for my body and I was hospitalized and almost died. Don't over react to a bit or two, but multiple bites could be cause for concern!

Probably different types of spider bites look different. Mine was a small bug bite with a scaly round rash that itched around it. If it gets worse or she is showing sings of an allergic reaction take her to the E.R. It may be dangerous. Otherwise it will probably go away.

sounds like a fire ant bite. Fire ant bites get a little white bead in them.

sounds more like a fire ant bite that's a couple of days old.

Best thing to do if you think it might be a spider bit is take her to the ER if the Dr.'s office isn't open today... if it is a spider bite depending on what kind of bite she might need medical treatment... it might be something else like a fire ant or even mosquito bite because they form a white head on the surface after 24 hours.. If she has any symptoms that are out of the ordinary seek medical attention ASAP!!

yes. at least when i have had one, it looks like that, or its plain sensitivity to a particular insect. Also, if it dosen't itch it is prob. a spider bite.

It could be, but I don't think so. A spider bite is usually red, swollen and very, very painful. What you are describing could be an ant bite. If you have any reason to believe its a spider bite, she needs to go to the ER. Several spiders are very deadly and the complications are extreme, including death.

Not sure about spider bites, but ant bites will look like that a couple days after the bite. It will go away in a few days.

No, most insect bites including spiders bite or inject so it should get red and bumpy not white
