Can anyone tell me what might have bitten me?!


Question: Can anyone tell me what might have bitten me!?
I recently got bit my a spider i think!. I noticed several days ago after i got out of the shower that right on the inside my ankle, i had a huge reddish almost purple spot about two inches long and it was swollen!. I touched it and it hurt to touch it!. I put some ice on it, but the swelling did not go down!. I did squeeze it, don't ask me why!.!.!.prolly not the best thing to do, but some fluid came out!. Today it is smaller, close to an inch now, and it is still red, but not as purplish looking, and it has two small dots about a cm apart!. Could those be fang marks from a spider!? Im really worried that it might be a poisonous one but then i guess i would have gotten sick right!? Please help!. Thank you!Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
more than likely it was a spider!. I hate to tell you but all spiders are poisonous just not all of them are deadly to human!. If this was a deadly one you would be sick already!. That said I can tell you that it can still get infected if you do not keep it very clean !. Do not squeeze it anymore either as this only spreads the poison it to deeper tissue and makes it sore for a lot longer!. To treat
1 wash good with soap and water twice a day
2 apply benadryl and triple antibiotic ointment
3 cover with a bandaid
4 if the bite seems to get bigger, you get a fever, or get red streaks going up your leg Go To the Doctor you have gotten an infection!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
