spider bite?

[rh71]

I have a really sore ankle out of nowhere, it's like a sore from a bruise or a twist I suppose. The thing is it's not bruised in color but it is very slightly pinkish, the diameter of a baseball, with a mark in the middle. Is this an easy sign of a spider bite? Do they not usually bulge up and puss because mine's fine? It's been a day sore like this with not other symptoms.. not itchy, etc.

Give it a few days and google image search "reclusive spider bite" and compare.

But this sounds more like a tick bite, google image search that and compare since this can be serious over time.

Could be any kind of bite. Maybe mosquito.

If you even think its a spider bite you should get it checked pronto.

No way, not if it's that big. The ATOT Dr. is on his smoke break. Get to a Dr. ASAP.

It could have been infected by a mosquito bite. Your flesh isn't necrifying, so that rules out a recluse. You don't feel physically ill, so no black widow. I'd just keep an eye on it, and go to the doctor if it gets worse.

is there a rash? If so, you could have Lime Disease.

Could be the beginning of a staph infection, I had one a couple years back out of the blue, not cool.

SPIDER bite

speaking of spiders, i JUST walked outside my apartment to go to 7-eleven, and i saw this crazy looking spider speed-crawling on the ground. Looked like Carnage or venom...whoever is black/red. It wasnt a black widow...this thing was the destroyer of lives.

EDIT: Forgot to mention, i stepped on it.

IIRC, spider bites have 2 puncture wounds.

If it's just one, it's probably not from a spider.

Also consider the possibility of bedbugs
