Answers:
You should go to the doctor, if it is a spider bite and its really itchy then you aren't to at least start taking some benedryl!. Try icing it and elevating it should also help with the swelling!. good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Sounds like you have cellulitis, you have to go to the Dr!. for that, they give you a step down steroid pack and a strong antihistamine (Zyrtec)!. But you need to go soon otherwise it gets worseWww@Answer-Health@Com
