3 nights ago I went to bed, I thought I felt something crawling on my foot but when I took the covers off I did not see anything. I went to bed and about 2 hours later I woke up to extreme itching on the outside of both of my feet.... there are two red bumps that have swollen up a bit and the scary thing is that the puncture wounds are in the exact same spot on both of my feet ... first, was this a spider and second, HOW DO I GET IT TO STOP ITCHING?!?! ITS DRIVING ME CRAZY!!!

Hydrocortisone for the itching.. likely it was never a spider bite though.. more likley fleas.. spiders rarely bite humans in anyevent (theres no point actually.. you cant feed em why would they?) even if you pi*s em off they will rarely bit you.. it will happen occasionaly but rarely but you pretty much gotta be the one pushing it (like the brown recluse bites.. and with those you wount have any doubt.. cuz youll be having some surgery not just mosquito bites.. look up necrosis some day from recluse spiders.. people have actually died and lost limbs from it..)
Science has pretty much proven ant at any given time anyone anywhere is less than 8 ft from an arachnid (spider) I in fact love em.. let em run my house any thing that hates flys as much as me cant be all bad I figure (I really hate flys) I go outta my way not to kill spiders even when i lived in the desert I rarely messed with scorpions (same family just a bit older) and i've been stung by those and woke up with more than one.. Spiders are much more polite lemme tell ya...

First of all Take some Benadryl it will help with the itching. Keep Alcohol on the Bite sites. Wash all of your Bed Covers, sheets ect. and Then buy a Bug Bomb and set it off and leave your home for a few hours to let it kill spiders, fleas, roaches and other varmits that may inhabit a home. Keep an eye on the Bites, if the redness and swelling goes down, you are ok. If not get to a doctor. Good Luck, hope this helps

It could have been, though depending on where you live and the level of clenliness you maintain it sounds rather unlikely. Spiderbites happen a lot less them most people believe. I would take some benedryl or another over the counter antihistamine. This will help with the itching. Topical rash type stuff won't hurt either and could speed healing.

in the action picture, it became right into a genetically-engineered "Superspider". Peter, Mary Jane and different scholars have been on a college field visit trip at a college technology branch. Mary Jane observed that between the small "cages" became into empty. The spider that escaped bit Peter, and the rest is historic past. this is not any longer a definite breed of spider; in simple terms a number of diverse species that have contributed to the attributes of the Superspider. in the comics, Peter became into attending some form of medical demonstration concerning radiation. on a similar time as the test became into being performed (and the radiation became into flying), a spider on a strand of information superhighway descended no longer noted into the radiation field. It became "radioactive" (even however a extra maximum stunning term could be "irradiated"), and bit the closest individual, who befell to be Peter Parker. there have been extremely some incarnations of the comparable tale, in diverse "foundation" memories in Spider-guy comics. One remarkable ingredient: in the comedian variations of the story, the spider dies presently after biting Peter; curiously, now that the spider has performed his activity, he's now no longer mandatory. yet in the action picture, the spider crawls off under some lab kit. this is nonetheless very plenty alive---undergo in strategies, THAT spider hadn't been uncovered to any radiation. no longer something befell that could have killed it.

Yeah definitely not a dangerous spider - i've been bitten by a black widow and believe me you'd know about. Also definitely not a brown recluse because no necrosis of the flesh. Over the counter cream all that is required I suspect.

Two red bumps? Sounds like a very small vampire. If you are really worried google or consult your doc. Spiders are not at all dangerous in the UK and it might be nothing to do with bites at all.

Def not a dangerous spider bite. maybe a flea or something. If it was a black widow or a brown recluse you would be fu***d up right now. Don't worry about it. Have your hubby put some hydrocortisone on it lol.
