for pain- itch- u can use sodium bicarbonate (arm and hammer-) this buffers the acid in the bite to a ph that does not sting- also works on ant bits and jelly fish stings. Also, you can apply hydrocortisone 1% and benadryl (diphenhydramine) cream to decrease inflammation -available at walgreens. I would also apply triple antibiotic onto bandaid and apply to wound just in case the spider injected a bacteria into you- this covers all bases. Of course if the spider injected poison then you need to see your physician or er to receive antivenom IV to prevent yourself from death.

Hi, Different individuals react to one of a kind extents to insect bites, it will additionally incorporate one of a kind response severity's among one of a kind bugs. It can almost always rely on when you have been uncovered to these forms of bites earlier than. I identified a few individuals who swell up in large welts with mosquito bites however haven't any response to mattress insects. This could be defined extra technically via the presence of anti our bodies int he sufferer to the bites which cause a extra extreme response. With mattress computer virus bites there's no recognized injected fabric and the chew is relatively only a bodily gap within the floor of the dermis. This having been stated I did meet one character who was once truthfully hospitalised as a consequence of the response she needed to mattress computer virus bites. Reaction occasions too can fluctuate commonly from character to character and I suspect will also be in part as outcome of the atmosphere you're in, in spite of everything the frame many be included in among two and one hundred bites which can be simply small holes int he dermis. The exceptional recommendation is to check out and uncover some thing that soothes the itches and in case you react critically assess along with your GP approximately the quick time period use of anti histamines. It is primary to maintain the bitten locations blank and to guard them from secondary illness. Hope that is helping somewhat, maintain a watch on it and spot a GP or guidance nurse if it does now not transparent in a couple of days or suggests indicators of fitting extra irritated. David

HELLO ALBERT,
THE FIRST THING TO DO IS KNOW WHAT TYPE OF SPIDER BIT YOU. IF IT WAS A BROWN RECLUSE SPIDER THIS IS ONE WHICH INJECTS A POISON THAT CAUSES THE SURROUNDING TISSUE TO BEGIN TO DIE. THIS MAY NEED A SKIN GRAFT TO REPAIR. A 4-6 INCH S QUITE SERIOUS. FORGET ABOUT YAHOO AND SEE A DERMATOLOGIST.
