Spider bit me and don't know what do to?

2011-09-20 9:51 pm
I rummaged around in my closet yesterday and "disturbed" the spiders I am guessing. I killed a brown spider yesterday on my bed that was brown with long legs about and inch and a half long. Long legs! Now I have a "circular" reddish ring about the size of a quarter below my belly button with what appears to be a "blister" in the center, a raised "sac" just like a blister that hasn't been popped. Put alcohol on it and still have ice pack on it as it was somewhat painful. But really do not want to die from a spider bite. That's just not good for me! LOL I live in western Kentucky and supposedly brown recluse spiders are bad here, though the landlord (I live in govt housing project but it is a small nice one) sprays monthly for bugs and stuff but I don't allow them to spray in my bedroom as it is usually messy! LOL No I am not a hoarder but it seems like everything that my daughter doesn't want anymore ends up in my room! Though not blaming her for this. I just want to make sure that I don't die so if you don't hear from me anymore, you at least will know why! Anybody know about spider bites? This happened several hours ago or probably as I slept and no symptoms as yet except the bite itself. Thank you for any help. Would appreciate it!

Actually, that does sound disturbingly like a recluse bite. I would recommend that you go to your local ER and get treated. I know you don't have the spider, but in this case, I think it's worth assuming the worst. A recluse bite normally only causes a nasty sore that is slow to heal, but occasionally you can have complications, so get it checked sooner rather than later. Incidentally, the spider you described is definitely consistent with a recluse. I don't suppose you saved it?

PANIC. Always panic.

I'm sure your fine. Just leave it open for a while and wipe it with an antiseptic wipe. If it is irritating, then put some savalon as this will help heal and soothe at the same time. If you feel dizzy, have a headache for more than a day or feel different than usual then there is no harm in going to your local doctors or walk in centre.

If it's been several hours and you haven't at least come down with a fever then you will probably be fine. Brown recluses are usually smaller than the one you described.
