I have a spot on my inner thigh that looks like a bull's eye about the size of a nickel (that is the only size comparison I can think of). There is a red bump that is surrounded by bluish/black bruising. I did not see the spider bite me, I am only assuming the bite is from a spider.
I have an appointment with the doctor for this afternoon. But I know that all she is going to be able to do is give me an educated guess. I am looking for people that have had this happen to them.

I live in Southeast Texas and as far as I know we don't have ticks. I lived in Conroe when I was younger and we had woods behind our house and there were ticks there...

I've been bitten by three different spiders. One spider bit me 11 times and left a nasty scar. The one spider caused me to have a blood infection and the other one left a really itchy red mark that caused a blister and just looked bad for a while. It too left a scar but not as bad as the one that bit me eleven times.
Hope you found out what it was.

Oh my gosh! I have been bitten many times by spiders but I've never had the reaction you have. I just get a really huge welt like bigger than the size of my hand and it itches really, REALLY bad and then disappears after an hour or two.
I hope the dr can do something for you.
Good luck!

there should be two tiny puncture marks in the center of the welt if its a spider bite.
It'll be interesting to find out what it is.
