yes it could be a spider bite, and its dangerous and could be poisonous, my advice, go to the doctor immediately!

Yes! That is a spider bite it will go away no wories when did you get it? It should itch though bt that is only if the venom got in there (no harmful just itchy) well hope i helped! - Brooke

yes clean you house before you have hole family of them

yes, that is a spider bite. Yes it will go away.

If it was a black widow and you weigh less than 90 lbs., I would go see a doctor. But if you don't feel woozy, I wouldn't worry too much about it. It should go away in a couple of days.

any spider bite should be looked at by your primary physician. You never know if it may turn serious.

yes

i used to get them all of the time it is a spider bite but it will go away in about a week or so

I spider dont bite 2 bites it only makes one hole. Well not really a hole but a bite. 2 bites 1 cenimeter long apart is a snake bite.

Spiders occasionally bite humans. Although 98-99% of spider bites are harmless,[1] more rarely, the symptoms of their bites can include necrotic wounds, systemic toxicity, and in some cases, death. Four genera are known to have potentially lethal bites.[2]

In almost all cases of spider bite, the chief concern is the spider's venom. Spiders regarded as dangerous possess venom which is toxic to humans in the quantities which can be delivered by a single bite.

The use of the terms "poison" or "poisonous" in the context of spider bites is discouraged, as poison generally refers to substances which are harmful if absorbed through epithelial linings (e.g., eaten, or absorbed through the skin). The effect of eating spiders is, in general, unknown, but some spiders (such as tarantulas) are sometimes consumed as food.[3]

If the red/pink area starts to expand or turn some other nasty color - purple or brown, or if it starts to hurt, see a doctor.

Also bite location may be important - bite on the arm, probably no big deal. Bite on the hoo hoo. Could be a problem. If only a tip to kick up your personal hygiene a notch.

it could be a spider bit
and depending on where you live it could be a tick bite
go to a doctor if you have fever or any other related symptom

Quite possibly, I suggest that you scrub the area with soap and water, disinfect the wound with aseptic and then watch the area for a day or two. If it gets worse or doesn't show signs of healing, see a doctor. Spider bites can be serious and in some cases, spiders will actually inject eggs into the flesh.

If it becomes swollen and/or changes to a dark color, it may have been a recluse. If it gets worse, see a doc for antibiotics. Recluse bites are nasty and can cause death in untreated cases.
A recluse spider is only about 1/4 inch and is a light brown, near translucent color. They generally reside in old storage areas and dark places.

Yes, a spider bite would be red or pink. Also would probably be sore or itchy or both. Spiders do make 2 holes, I think. If it gets pus in it, or if it scabs over and falls off, looking weird. . .go to your doctor. Another thing to keep in mind is CA-MRSA (resistant staph) which usually presents as a pimple or boil (very red, with a hole in the center.) These resistant staph boils are often mistaken for spider bites. Make sure your doctor cultures it if it gets pus in it so they know what antibiotic is effective against the staph. Good Luck.
