Tell us where your bite is (arm, leg, nose, whatever)
At the bend and under part of my left arm
Why I think it's a spider bite
'cause the doctors said it was
What happened
I was asleep and felt a stinging -- woke up to find a huge bruise looking thing on my arm that was very hard. Went to 3 doctors before they would give me antibiotics and it was over a week later so it was already in my blood stream and I felt it. It is totally really bad infected that it's rotting my skin. They finally admitted me into the hospital for 24 hours and sent me home with a strong burn, bite creme and some antibiotics.
Advice
- If you know there is something wrong with you and you know you need antibiotics don't leave until you get them. You know your body better than anyone.
- Don't use salt to draw infection on a spider bite it makes it worse.
