So a few days ago I was enjoying myself in a park but then found 4 spider bites on me. Two have gotten red and puffy and swelled up about 3 in. across. I'm starting to get a little concerned, but I don't know how serious spider bites may or may not be. I'd much rather not have to go to a doctor. I don't know what they would do anyway.
Do they go away on their own like mosquito bites do? Or is there something I can do to help my body heal from them?
Any advice or direction would be really appreciated. Thanks! :)

I'm thinking that it might actually be a little infected. Do you have an idea of what I might do for something like that?
Permalink Reply by Ivegonebananas on Go see the doctor asap. Personally I wouldn't take chances with spider bites. Ya I hate docs too but at least you can rule out if it's serious or not and have peace of mind.
Permalink Reply by ka on Yeah, I think you're right. I'm gonna see a doc this afternoon. seeing as how it looks now, I think it's better to be safe than sorry. ah! I hope he doesn't say i need antibiotics. :(
but I suppose, since changing to lfrv, my body will hopefully be better able to heal from the ill effects of meds.
