Why I think it's a spider bite

I am actually curious if it's a spider bite before I take any medical action.

What happened

Found the bite while sitting on post in ft Stewart GA. It does not hurt, yet. But when I squeezed it it did produce pus. It looked like a pimple with a inch wide red ring around it. As far as I know it has only been there for less than 24 hours. I don't feel ill, so I was just wondering.

Advice

  • Not sure I have much of an experience to go off of yet, but I will update once I have an experience to base this off of.
