This happened 3 or so days ago. It is smaller now, but hurts. It is hard. Given that it has already been three days, will I be okay until morning? I don't feel nauseated. I wasn't as hungry as normal today, but I think that was because I ate a ton a ton of food last night. My legs are sore, but I am a server and worked a lot this weekend. Will I be okay until the morning? Anything I should do until then.
I did NOT see anything bite me, can't confirm it was a spider.

Oh yeah... I also have few red bumps a little over from the bite, not sure if they are related. I think the bit looks worse in the pic than in the mirror, but it is my back so I can't see it that well.
I can't really afford the ER, will I be

I could not see picture but if you think it was a spider bite but are not having an allergic reactions, you can probably wait and see how it goes. If you start see the skin rotting away sorta of, it could be a brown recluse bite and you really need medical attention then. It can be serious.

Yes you will be okay until tomorrow. However, if it is a spider bite or insect bit you need to treat it. Try some OTC Benadryl. I am very allergic to spider bites and it's a life-threatening thing for me. I was treated 6 times in one week in the ER with shots of Benadryl and Epinephrine. I was bit on my eyebrow and the prescription cortisone healed it too quickly, so I opened it back up myself to let the poison out. That was many years ago and I still have the scar on my eyebrow. My eye was very swollen and the poisonous bite was hard. Yours might be a slight reaction, but have someone look at your back please. They can tell you better what it looks like. Many antihistamines OTC might help you.

certain, it is what it feels like. the dreaded element is that this is getting larger...if it replaced right into a extra chance free type of spider, the swelling might want to be happening by utilizing now. i'd get your self to the emergency room or a minimum of an urgent care center. It seems poisoned.
