I live in Lebanon Oregon, and Sunday or Monday evening 9-2-07 or 3-07
I think I was bit by a spider. At first I thought it was a mosquito, and I put Hydrocortisone cream on it because I found myself scratching my leg on the arm of my loveseat. But as the night went on it was making me crazy because I’ve always been told not to scratch it spreads the poisons quicker or something.
Here is a picture of the spider bite.
By the next morning I thought it was better until I stood up on it. See its just above my ankle on the inside of my left leg. But by that night I found another bite on the other side of my leg just about on the ball thing on my ankle. This one isn’t bothering me that much though. So by the 2nd night I had finally scratched the top of the inner one off.. *I know I’m bad* but yesterday it was finally not itching but it was warming.
Now it appears to be spreading or I’ve some how bruised it all the way around it. It looks bad. I’m posting this to ask, should I go to the hospital? I haven’t seen a Dr. in probably 12 yrs. And I have no insurance. Please some one tell me will it just go away? Thanks scratching in Oregon. ha ha
I live in canton, OH. Two days ago I woke up with a spider bite and not sure what kind it is. It really red and the pus cam out but it stings and burns. please help
I got bite on my forarm while visitng family in chicago. I’m not sure what kind of spider it was, but a picture of the bite is included below.
I enclosed pictures. I noticed the pain more today, and swelling. I got bite on aug 30th and today is sept 5th. I am ussing oatmeal baths to sooth the area. It seems to help ease the pain and itch.
I got bit by what i dont know and assume a spider. There are plenty at my job and it happened two days ago. The bite area was itchy at first, then became very painful and now swollen. The bite looks like fluid in the center and very red around it and once again, it is itchy. I don’t know what to do.
I was bitten by a bug and I’m not sure if it was a spider or not, and that’s what I’m worried about. It is located on my leg, right below my knee where my leg bends on the right side. There is a mosquito bite-like bump which is surrounded by a large welt, about an inch in size. It doesn’t hurt, and it only itched the first couple hours that I noticed it, and it itched very, very, VERY little.
There is also a small bump right by the area where I was bit, and it itches and looks EXACTLY like a mosquito bite. I don’t remember feeling pain when I was bit, and my dad said that he was 100% sure that it was just a mosquito bite. (I’m a HUGE worry-wort, though) I can’t help but be scared that something bad is going to happen to me, like the things I’ve heard about brown recluse spiders, and that’s why I’m looking for your advice.
Please, if you read this, and you think you’re pretty sure what bit me, PLEASE tell me. Thank you, and I’ll keep you updated on what happens to the bite.
For Vicki and man with small red circles:
I am not a physician, but I would look into ringworms. Especially since the man has more problems after being in the basement and then feels relief after showering. Check with a dermatologist maybe you could just call one or call your physician and ask him aboiut the possibility.
HI
My story is similiar to #4 but I was bitten a few weeks ago on my belly near my thigh. The spot turned red and was hot to the touch with a black dot in the middle…I couldnt really see if it was to puncture holes or anything, but a day later it developed a black pusy pimple which I popped. When popped bloody pus came oozing out in a steady stream, followed by blood and severe pain. I put some bag balm and steriod cream on it to stop the itching and infection, but it just seemed to get worse. Now a few weeks later…I have 3 more that are forming and nothing seems to be working. They are very painful and hurt a great deal. I live by Buffalo Ny and all I have ever seen were daddy long legs, until last year when I spotted a white spider. Now my mother had the same symptoms and hasnt had anymore since. The ER said it was just a common spider bite and gave some anitbiotics and sent us home. Please help me…I have exhausted my search on this matter.

bitten on left forearm, near elbow. Swollen area is approx 3″ diameter around the bite. Bite looks to be a pimple-looking spot. Area is swollen around 1/4″ to 3/8″ out from the arm. No noticeable “hole” or “holes” to speak of. Painful to the touch, and throbs while resting.
I live in MIami Florida and I think I have a spider bite. I noticed on my stomach a red area and its a little swollen. The red area has two little wite spots that look like a pinple and its real close together. I just need to know if I should see a doctor our wait and see.
i got bite 2 days ago and did not even realize it until after. it looked like a red mosquito bite. now it is a small white bump. it looks as if its a zit and the area around it is all red and swollen. it feels as if its a bruise.
the white bump i think has been getting bigger.
i just want to make sure its not anything i have to worry about.
Friday i woke up with a sore in my left nostril. By Friday evening it was causing severe pain in my nose and head. I ending up in the ER late Sunday night because the pain was so intense. The ER doctor said it could be an infenction or a possible insect bite.
He gave me Antibiotics and Steriods along with pain pills.
Last night I noticed pus running out of my nose, which has been so tender and red that I can stand to touch it. I gently applied pressure, and a thick green pus started draining out. Alot of my pain went away at the time, but this morning, now that i can actually get a better look at my nostril, there is a small hole that is still draining not only pus, but a harder cyst like substance. My temperature is now below normal, and I just feel very ill, and the skin on my nose and around the ulcerated spot looks like it’s peeling. Does this sound like a spider bite?

I recently experienced the exact same symptoms you did. I was just wondering if you found out what exactly it was. I was out of town when it happened and I never went to see a doctor like an idiot! I first though it was a mesquito bite then it started to swell up. It turned into a bunch of blisters on top of the bite and they finally popped and dried out and now I have scabs and it’s healing. During all of that my groing was swollen also, and my muscels in my leg were very sore for a day.
I woke up sunday morning and my ankle sore so I looked at it and thought it was a burn of some kind, then at church, the pastor’s wife looked at it and said it looked like a brown recluse bite because she just got over one. I have included the picture below.
It’s tuesday morning now and this is what it looks like any body got any ideas.
Outside area size of dime and pink. In the center a tiny pea size bubble filled with pus. Breaks easily and then the area is just raw looking. One night I felt a pinch and was surprised to see the above looking area the next morning. This morning I have another. Slow to heal and area stays discolored (small and dull pink) for a long time.
Only area in my bedroom not cleaned is my night stand. I’m taking it apart in the morning.
I live in a desert-type area of west Texas.
My 11 year old daughter woke up yesterday morning with a 1″ swollen area between her shoulder blade and hip. Yesterday it was whitish center and red non cemetrical circle around the outside. Today it has a bluish/purple off centered dot in the middle. See the picture below:
We have traveled a great deal this summer to south central US, hiked all over the Pocono Mtns, various cities all in the US. Could we have brought back a spider that we should be concerned with?
I was bitten by a brown medium sized spider (about of a nickle). first it started to itch so i thought it was nothing, but by friday it turned red. Now its sunday, around the spider bite its darkpurple fades into red then light pink and it itches intensively. what kind badspider bite me and what should i do? Hospital?
My mom woke up this morning and saw a small bump on her hand resembling a zit looking infection! I’m not quiet sure if it is a spider bite and I dont know if i should be worried! Please reply! I am unable to get any pictures but it basically looks like a zit but its not red just a pointy bump and VERY sensitive to the touch!
I live in Etobicoke .
I noticed a mark on the back of my left leg on the calf. I think its a spider bite..
its very itchy and hot and has 7 small marks around in a circle!
it was extremly red, but seemed to get beter because I went to the doctor the next day and she gave me a cream to help it.
I have a small bad bite our something its a series of tiny and like a little smaller than a dime, also its red, and it itches very bad like hives but its not because there’s only one also its only when ever it comes in contact with something. What the heck is it I hate it?
The bite is on the back of my calf and is really itchey. The around the spider bite their is a red and puffy circle
I live in Des Moines Iowa and I’m at work. I got bit 4 times Wednsday when I was sleeping. I have no idea what kind of spider bit me but I think maybe I’m getting in trouble with these bites. I don’t have a way to send photos. All 4 bites have a black spot in the middle and their starting to open up. The bites are on my stomach and it burns a lot. 1/2 of my stomach is firey red and very very hot. Except for the burning it seems like the area is numb. Calamine lotion helps with the burning. Thanks to anyone who can help.
I’ll start by saying I am covered in spider bites, but I live in a very wooded area, so it comes with the territory. I have one in particular that has been around for a week. After the first day, there was a read circle about 2 inches across around it that extended all the way from the bite area. This morning, I noticed that the red ring is now replaced with about 10 small circular bruises that look almost like someone poked me over and over with their finger. It is no more painful that any other bite I have. Any thoughts??
On Friday 8/31/2007 I awoke to a sore feeling on my forehead. Upon palpation I discovered a knotted region that looked and felt like I’d been hit by a baseball. I have pain radiating from the knotted area down the sides of my face, halfway down my cheekbone, and it has recently been accompanied by numbness.
Four hours after discovery the left side of my nose has gone partially numb. The actual knot is raised several millimeters and is about the size of a quarter, and including the swollen area around it is about the size of a silver dollar. I haven’t found an actual entry wound on the knot, even on photos taken with a digital camera with macro zoom. I have ruled out bedbugs, spider mites, dust mites. It does not itch, it hurts. There’s nothing oozing and no ulceration, the skin is smooth.
When I ice it the ice doesn’t provide much relief. Wiping it with alcohol causes blotchiness. I’m taking antihistamines and anti-inflamatories but nothing seems to help. This happened in NorthWestern New York, indoors, and we have at times seen various kinds of spiders, centipedes and house centipedes in the house. I’ve not been able to identify what critter caused this.
I have included the picture above and shows eyeliner marking the regions. The area in the solid circle is the knot, the area in the dotted circle is the swollen area, and the lines on the side of my face and under the brow are the areas of radiating pain and partial numbness/desensitization.
August 31,2007 at 1:00 p.m. I’m from Louisiana and i was at my grandmothers when i was bitten. When I was bitten, I felt pain right away, then a burning and itching follwed. I’m almost positive it’s a spider, it’s just what kind thats got me puzzled.
One hour after my bite i felt a tingling feelin go up my leg and in my fingers (i was bitten on my little toe on my right side).
Two hours later i got the worst headache ever,i got so weak i laid down(which is not me),the area was red, hurt,and a numb feeling.
This morning i checked it it had a pimple like head, red all around, dumb me popped it now it looks like its gettin bigger ands still tender, no fever but my stomache feels tight and hurting on the left side, and another strange thing is my eyes are swollen and puffy,and fatigue.
I have 3 kids so if anyone can give me advice on what kind bite me and what to do i’m all ears, oh yeah, the chills are takin over me….Please help me no insurance
I can’t really say for sure that this is a spider bite but from what I have seen at your site, I believe it is. About 9 days ago, I woke up with what seemed like an ingrown hair or a very painful pimple. It was located just above my right elbow on my forearm. I really didn’t think much of it.
I figured I‘d give it a couple of days and then pull it out with some tweezers no big deal right? Wrong before I knew it, my “pimple” had now turned into a volcano like shape with a big red ring around the center. It was maybe an inch to an inch and a half radius easy. Now instead of the little white head bothering me, this volcano like shape was starting to really hot and the skin around it felt really dry and tough.
Now before I know it, everyone is telling me that I got a bad spider bite and need to take care of it! I panic, go on the internet and start looking up spider bites. I may not know what type of spider bit me but I’m damn sure glad it wasn’t a brown recluse!
I live in California and from what I’ve read, they really don’t have brown recluse in Cali. Well, at least, that’s what I find out. But now a days, anything is possible and I could be wrong. One thing I can say is that my bite does not look half as bad as brown recluse victims.
I have managed to get the red ring around the volcanic like shape to diminish and have seems like to have flattened it quite a bit. this I achieved by taking antibiotics (orally and topically), soaking my bite in almost boiling water mixed with epson salt and by taping a small piece of aloe vera leaf over the bite, held by to Band-Aids. It was something that was suggested to me to try.
So far I have had good results. Here is a picture of my bite. If all goes well, I will send some updated pictures in the days to come.
I don’t know if I am supposed to write all this in a comment at your site or do I send you my pictures and story to you first? Can you please let me know? I really appreciate you taking the time to make a site like yours for people like me. A site to share info. Thanks!

Red Spider Bite
I have what i believe is a spider bite. There is a tiny black spec in the middle surrounded by red. It is hot, itchy and the red area keeps growing in size. So, it is probably infected. I am going to the doctor, but any other advice would help as family physicians don’t always have the right answer or treatment!
I have had this bite on my lower back for a few days, tiny little bites in the form of a big circle. It feels sensitive in the surrounding area, I don’t have any other symtoms. Could this be a spider bite?
Ok so i live in Eastern Washington. Woke up this morning and notice the left side of my lip is swollen to twice it’s size. Go and look and i see a small bump in the center of it on the inside. It doesn’t hurt or anything yet. It’s just really big and annoying
My husband recently got bitten by a what seems to be a spider. It looked similar to a pimple or ingrown hair, so he tried to pop it. Nothing came out, and now it has been about 4-5 days and it is starting to swell even larger. While there is no black or blueness to it, there is a huge knot under the skin, redness spreading about 6-8 inches above and below the bite (which is around his forearm area) and he is starting to feel nauseus and weak in that arm. Is this something that we need to take to the DR. or just continue cleaning it with alcohol? Please let me know soon I dont want to wait to long…
Thanks,
i live in ottawa, ontario…. i woke up the other night thinking id been bit by a mosquito and scratched my forarm a bit because it was really itchy… then went back to sleep. Later the next day i totaly pushed it from my mind becuase i figured it was just a mosquito bite untill i caught it in the mirror. at around noon it had a large red center about the size of a quarter and a pink flushed ring around it measure around 1/2″ the whole thing together looked around 2 inches wide… it wasnt itchy and it didnt hurt it just looked really angry. now the outer ring has faded but has spread out a bit….. the bites a little swollen.. not hard or anything… its just very unsettling to see

Last week my ex-husband was bitten on his stomach while cleaning a junk pile in his yard. Initially he thought it was a mosquito bite and hadn’t felt it when it occurred, but said that he had brushed several small light brown spiders off himself while working.
By the next day he started feeling headaches and slept for about 36 hours. The headaches have continued and the wound has grown over the course of the last five days, he said progressing to a large red area with a raised central lump and two small whiteheads on top much too painful to touch.
Yesterday morning the boil opened up on its own and started draining. Last night he came by my place on his way to the hospital and showed me the bite for the first time. The bright red area surrounding it is as big as my hand, heel to finger tip. The wound opened up within hours to a 50 cent sized, round raised (1/2 inch high) volcano shaped ulcer with yellow splotches and bloody pus draining out of it. It looked like the inner flesh was erupting up and out through the middle.
The entire area was too painful to touch, he said even his t-shirt brushing it was excruciating. I took a pic, but haven’t been able to download it to my PC yet. Not being squeamish, I didn’t run to the bathroom and vomit the way he said his roommate did, but when I saw that I took him straight to the ER at Sutter General.
The ER doc stated it was simply a staph infection. He then injected some lidocaine into it and proceeded to open it further with a scalpel. Evidently, from my ex’s screams, I don’t think the local anesthetic did much to relieve his pain, but the ER Dr didn’t seem to care and pretending not to notice proceeded to squeeze and suction the wound. Personally, I think he was a bit of a masochist. Mostly blood came out because it had been draining all day on its own, and the Dr acted like it wasn’t any big deal, just business as usual.
When we told the doctor that it started out as a probable spider bite he didn’t seem to want to believe it, insisting that staph exists in everyone and that now and then it erupts into a boil like that one, for no accountable reason. He then packed the wound with about a 3 inch strip of medicated (tape?) gauze and put on a loose dressing. He prescribed my ex with two different antibiotics, one to be taken once a day and the other to be taken twice a day and told him to see a Dr in 48 hrs to have the packing removed.
All well and good but, knowing my ex, he won’t get the scripts filled and will most likely show up here asking me to remove the packing for him tomorrow or the next day. Well, we’ll see how it goes in the next week or so. I just hope that this wound doesn’t progress like some of the pics I’ve seen here (which it might if he doesn’t follow the Dr’s orders).
This is on his stomach after all and if it were to go as deep as some of them do (or if they have to surgically remove dead tissue), there just isn’t much between the flesh on his stomach and vital organs besides abdominal muscle. He seemed to know before going in that it was nothing to take lightly, but the attitude of the ER doc seemed to make him feel like he was being a baby about the whole thing, which with this man is really not a good thing. Does anyone have any comments about treatment they’ve received and how well (or not) it worked, for a wound such as this? If so, please post!
my mother lives in nort east pennsylivina, and was biten by a spider on her back.. the bite got very red and filled with pus…. she was on oral antibitocs and had to have the bite lanced to promote drainage soon after the bite healed another bump appered under the old one and now she has a total of four the last to have been the worse the infection has spread to her lymph glands under her arm.. the doctors can not find out what the problem is any suggestion please help…
I was in Winterset, IA this past Sat. and slept in a tent and think I was bitten by a spider. It’s on the back of my right calf and it started out looking like a mosquito bite and now it’s about a 1/2 inch long and red and has a few bumps. It itches, stings and burns all around the bite. It seems to be getting bigger the past couple days. I’ll try to send a pic.
I was bitten 10 days ago (Aug 19) by what I assume to be a spider – I did not see anything nor did I feel anything. As time has passed, the bites became larger, itch like crazy, and now have tiny blisters on them. They are the size of a quarter about an inch apart on my inner forearm
i was out at a festival in london and noticed on saturday night that there was what looked like a spider bite on my leg. It was mildly red all around with a centre that looks like a bite which kept getting redder and more swollen and now the ring is about an inch and a half wide (not perfectly circular) and so red it nearly looks purple.
It is also extremely itchy but i have only been scratching around it and never directly on it. I am worried as it seems to keep growing and now 4 days later it is pretty big. I also don’t want it to scar as it is on my shin! Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!!
I just noticed a round red spot about a 1/4″ in diameter with redness spreading out to about an inch in diameter.
I’m out in my flower gardens, weeding and such most days. I see spiders and don’t think much of it. I thought this was an ant bite at first, however it is now harding and I’ve had burning in this leg, thinking it was from using muscles not used regularly.
Please advise. I’ve marked the outline of where the redness is now and put triple antibiotic ointment on it with a bandaid over it and am watching it. If the redness spreads beyond the mark, I intend to go to the emergency room.
The only other thing I could compare it to is a boil that is festering and doesn’t have a head to burst yet.
Your advice would be most appreciated.
Hi, I have read a lot of these comments and all are from the USA. I am from England and was bitten by a spider (confirmed by the doctor today) whilst asleep 2 nights ago. I was up early to go to work and I felt my ankle itch and thought I’d been bitten but didn’t know what by what.
Over the next day it became swollen and I could see two puncture marks in my skin about 1/2cm apart. It is very red now with blistering on the bites and the area over my ankle is swollen and red. Around the actual bite is a circle of a deeper red ( maybe this is infection). I have been to the Doctors and my lymph glands in my groin are swollen and tender as is the rest of my leg.
I am taking antibiotics as I have an infection from the bite. I have done some research and this is very rare in England. I have no idea what kind of spider this could be but I thought I would share it with this very interesting forum.
I have to agree with some comments about why people wait to see the doctor. I am in a lot of pain and in a short time span. If you get bitten by a spider…see a Doctor ASAP!
I have a red blister on the back of my leg which I think was caused by a spider. It is about 1/2 of an inch in diameter, is blistered, but is broke because I shaved. It doesn’t hurt or did not hurt initially.
Can anyone advise me on what to do or if I should seek medical advice from my doctor. I live in central Wisconsin.
6 days ago I noticed what I thought was two mesquito bites in the same area. Not knowing any better I started scratching it. The next day it really starting to itch and it got even bigger. It turned really red and developed small bumps which started to hurt. The next day when I checked on it, the bumps turned into small blisters which popped that evening and was pretty painful.
I have been putting neosporin on the bite to help it heal. Now it looks like it is healing/drying out and it is a dark purplish color. I have noticed that my right leg and butt seems to be really sore and I sometimes have pains in my leg all the way down to my foot. My bite is on my right butt cheek so I am wondering if that has something to do with it. Now it looks like I have a huge bruise. Can you please tell me what this might be and what I should do about the bite. I never did see the spider if that is what it was!
Thanks for your help I appreciate it.
I woke up three days go and when i got in the shower i felt this sore knot on the back of my leg which seems to have gotten bigger and bigger. So finally that night i decided to see what the problem was and when i looked i noticed that it had a blister on it. I got a safety pin and popped it and out come something green. Later that night i rested on the couch because i could not lay down in the bed, only to find another one. Is this really a spider bite?
I was bit by some type of spider, I think. It bit me on the inside of my pinkie toe and within 24 hours it formed several pus filled blisters. I broke the blisters to release the pus and have been cleaning the area. Now more blisters are forming in other areas of the same toe and my skin is peeling. It hurts and itches very badly. What kind of spider might have bit me? I feel fine otherwise. No headaches or anything.
Thanks!
I’m not sure if the picture below is a spider bite. I got it while helping a friend move stuff out of his garage in a suburb of Los Angeles. I don’t remember being bit.
This is 48 hours later. It started out as a small hard bump with not much color. Now it is bright purple/red. You can see there is a slight swelling of my fingure compared to the other. I have no other symtoms other that it is really itchy. The shiny stuff is cordazone cream.
My Mom has an insect bite that has “tracks” like the insect gripped her arm & then bit. The bite festers & is not responding to antibiotic ointment. Although she is 85 yrs. old, is this a sign of a bite that will need medical care?
My husband was bitten by an unknown spider (perhaps a brown recluse since we live in so. IN). He did not get a look at the spider. His wound is almost like a knot w/ a small pore like opening. The knot is about the size of a dime and is slightly red. The pore opening is not oozing, and is the size of a pencil tip. It is sore to the touch. Please help if you can. Thanks
Our five year old Grandson had small bite on back of upper leg; we went for a physical for kindegarten and the bite was small at that time. The doctor (four days later) said some kind of insect had caused this bite. Today it is now a very large lump and very sore to touch. There is a small pocket of pus at top and I’m wondering if this could be caused by a brown recluse spider? What should I do as it is Sunday and the doctor’s office is closed; should I bring him into the emergency room or wait until Monday?
Thanks,
Terry
hi… Ive just gotten back from camp and i got a huge bite. my sleeping bag was slightly open and when i woke up i had an itchy spot that hurt when i touched it. Even though the pain has gone down slightly, my leg is EXTREMLY swollen and there
are two small holes as well. if anyone could help me out that would be great
I don’t have any photos right now, but I’ll see if I can get around to taking some.
I live in Western Michigan and I woke up this morning to a bite on the outside of left foot.
There were two reddish-purple circles under the skin that looked almost like bruises, about the size of the tip of a large sharpie marker or maybe a bit larger, and the circles were coming together like a Venn diagram.
These circle were inside of a swollen area that was very very white and hard to the touch, and around that white circle was a red ring.
I sat and watched the “bruises” underneath the skin dissipate, and eventually disappear, taking both the red ring and the white with it.
Now there is just a bright red, hard to the touch, swollen red spot on my foot.
That bruising, white circle, red ring “phenomena” has occured once since about 7 hours after I noticed the bite, and I again watched it go away.
I saw one brown spider on the ceiling of our bedroom, but it got away before I could make my boyfriend get a closer look at it… and they all look brown to me.
Has anyone had an experience like this and should I be worried about anything?
Update 8/27/07 – Before, my bite was more of a burning and stinging… And now it’s very very itchy… In fact it makes my whole foot itch… It’s just a big red mark, about 1/2 in – 1 in across, with two red puncture marks, about 2-3 centimeters from one another, inside.
Any ideas?

I was bitten on the 16th of Aug and it was a very sharp, painful bite. I did not see anything nearby to identify what bit me. On Friday it was red and itchy. On Saturday morning I could see two puncture marks and a very red, hard, hot irregular circle and around that a large pinkish irregular area. It was very itchy. The area was swollen and we went to the hospital where they could not say what bit me, but I was given an antibiotic. Today, the 25th of Aug, I feel very sick. I have a bad cold, feel pains in my neck and am wondering what is happening.
I was bit by somthing about 2 months ago. I was in bed, and I felt something itching between my right toes. I ignored it thinking it was an ant bite or something. A few days later it was itching again, and hurting a little, I looked at my toe, and it had a blister on it, and my toe looked swollen and red. The blister was bothering me so I popped it.
I went to the doctor and he said it looked like I had a bad reaction to something that bit me, but that it looked like it was getting better. After that the skin on my toe was dying, and I cut my toe nail down pretty low, and it didn’t hurt, but there was more dead skin.
A few weeks later I developed a very tiny blister in the same spot, and I popped it as well, it was very itchy. So the last few months, I have been getting these small blisters all over my toe, and I pop them, and put anitbiotics on it. Then last weekend, I was at the movies, and my toe was itching so I scratched it, and felt that I had just accidenatlly popped a large blister. Now since then the area where the blister was popped has caused the skin to peel away.
What should I do this is getting annyoying, and I want it to go away! Also I have not received any symptoms from it other than itching.
