What should I do after a spider bite?

What should I do about this spider bite?

  • Hey So, last night while on the phone with my bf a spider bit me. I know it was a spider because I found the nasty little thing on my leg where I was bit. I have no pic of the spider but it was really small, like... about 2 centimeters. Its legs however were probably around 4 or 5 cm and its body was a sort of amber color I think, while its legs were darker. It didn't hurt very much, and was small. A couple hours later it felt like it was "weeping" but I didn't really check it out. Today it has become a hard, red, hot to the touch lump. My mom says its nothing, that I'm just over reacting and I probably am but I want opinions. Heres a look at the bite: http://s979.photobucket.com/albums/ae279/kawaiiwolf/Spider%20Bite/?action=view&current=Snapshot_20100404_2.jpg What should I do?

hi

I had a spider bite a few weeks ago and had a very bad allergic reaction and had to go to urgent care. I would do the same. You need to get that checked out asap.

that's nothing to worry about it will get hard itchy ect after the bite just get it a little wet and put salt on it it takes some of the Venom out and help it heal but you have to keep the salt on for a long time.

Go and see a doctor it's better to be safe than sure. If your mom don't know what kind of spider it was or the effect the bite will have on you then how can she say that it's nothing.
