Take a Benydryl if it itches bad. You will be fine as long as it was not a poisonous one! Also, you will see two tiny dots where you got bit and it will probably swell up to the size of a mosquito bite (maybe a little bigger). Feel better!

Spider bites always leave 2 puncture marks. If there is only on puncture mark then it is not a spider bite. You can try ice packs and cortisone cream for the swelling and itching. If it looks infected get medical attention. Good luck.

Really the only way to tell if you have a spider bite is if you see it bite. It could be anything. If the issue lasts for more the about four days see a doctor. If you notice any strange sympotms seek help now.

use a magnifying glass to see if there are two puncture holes, spider bites always have two punctures as they all have two mandibles with which they bite. Otherwise it is likely some other insect to which you have reacted. such as mosquito or sand flea.
