Liquid Benadryl will make it stop itching and hurting. It's a clear liquid w/ a green lid that is near the bandaids in the pharmacy......it's GREAT.

Infection is your biggest concern at this point. I don't think they can do much for spider bite. Treat the itch as others suggested.
BTW, I went to my Dr. with a mole on my side which would scale over and be irritated by my undershirt. The Dr. removed it and sent it off for biopsy. The lab results said that it was probably from a spider or insect bite!

Take one or two Benadryl (antihistamine) tablets an hour before bedtime and the side effect is that you get sleepy. And use calamine or Benadryl or cortisone lotion or a combination on the bite itsefl.

I don;t know where you live, but seek medical attention like real quick because if it was a Brown Recluse you could lose your arm and I eman that with no joke. Go to the emergency Room like right now!!

If it doesn't go away and keeps looking worse, may be brown recluse bite. In that case you need to see a doctor.

treat it like a mosquito bite-put some calamine lotion on it and don't scratch it. It will go away in a couple days.

Assuming you have lived this long, go to a doctor.
