I have a spot on my lower abdomin, it is a raised spot that looks like a puss pocket white and purple with the surrounding area that is red. It is not hard but soft and tender to the touch, and also feels warm. I'm wondering if it could be a spider bite, shingles or flesh eating virus or bacteria.
Does anyone know of a site that might have pictures of these conditions that I might be able to compare it to? Thanks

check out www.webmd.com you should be able to find out what you need there. Also by what you are saying about it, it could be an ingrown hair too it will look like a pimple with white and red around it if it is infective. Place a worm face cloth on it and then after a while but some Antibiotic ointments on it that should do the trick.

You can look up MRSA pictures and see if it loks like that. Also draw a line around the redness. If it grow dramatically in size you need to go to the doctor. sometimes a spider bite will have two small holes that you know it is a spider bite. If you spike a fever definately go to the doctor. WEbMd is good for answers. also, If it is MRSA which most spider bites will come out to, you can get antibiotics and you should do well.

I've gotten a spot like you've described before. I think mine was caused by chafing. My clothing or underwear band rubbed against the skin too much and the little white and purple spot appeared. My spot went away in a few days.
