A spider bite?? Or what?!


Question: A spider bite?? Or what?
I keep getting these little itchy spots, like little bites, but then the next day it looks like a tiny pimple with a huge red area around it. The one I have now has a red area the size of a golf ball. I don't get them everywhere, only on my stomach and legs. And there aren't a whole bunch of spots all around each other, they are kind of spread out... could it be spider bites? If so, what kind?

Spider bites, usually have a point of entry, then a rash that goes off in different directions, and will itch pretty bad, You'd know if it was a bad spider, it just keep getting worse and worse rather quickly. Could be bed bugs, or fleas, maybe even mosquitos, and your just having more then the typical reaction. Try benedrly cream ( I'd suggest pills, but not unless you can sleep them off, they'll make you really tired).

Another thing, usually spiders bite as a defensive measure, so multiple bites are less likely. Inspect your bedding throughly, like with lots of light and magnifying glass, going real slow not to miss anything, you find something, tweeze it up and bag it, then just post pic, and you'll get an answer.

Any new diet changes, medications, bedding, detergents, change in bathing rituals, all could be possibles too.



I do not know but get the nurse at school or some one to look at them.
