ew.....note to self...stay away from spiders

 

Yes, definitely look for a specialist. I hope it gets better soon.

 

Dude, sorry to hear about what happened. I didn't even know you were sick. Hope you feel better.

 

What kind of treatment are you receiving, besides pain meds?

Ask your Doctor about oral diphenhydramine hydrochloride and alternating local applications of heat and ice. This has been effective for "necrotic" type spider bite wounds. Don't screw around, this kind of thing can be very serious if not treated properly.


I can't open your pic. Does it look like these?










This is the range of the Recluse family of spiders.
I live at Ground zero-Missouri








This is a pic of a less known spider that has the same bite as a Brown Recluse. It's called a "Hobo spider" or aggressive house spider. It lives mainly in Northwestern states.

I took a pic today, I'll post it. I've been trying to take 4 baths a day, every 5 hours or so to keep it clean as advised by the doctor. Pain meds were only given to me at the ER. Since my company hasn't been paying me they canceled my health ins.

Here's how it looks today, Any better?

 

Bloody hell that really looks horrible

 

It feels even worse

 

My wife had a gnat bite which looked the same as that. She had time off work and was under doctors treatment for it.
The scar will never heal

 

The yellowish are is dead skin, it's about to fall off and the hole will be much bigger. Is this good or bad?
