I think its a spider bite, what should i do?


Question:
I noticed a few days ago that my 2yr old son had something under his arm, near the armpit, it was dry, like when u cut yourself and it dries and is gets that dried skin, i first thought it was a mosquito bite but it is to big, it sordof looks like a big pimple, i put neosporin on it, and i looked at it right now and now he has two, right next to each other, and it looks the same, Do you think its a spider bite? What should i do?

Answers:
Relax, it's not a spider bite, or any other kind of bite. I think your son may be developing excsema or some other form of serious dry skin. I get that every winter. Just ask your doctor or dermatologist for a persription for hydrocortisone and put that onto every outbreak, twice a day. It should clear up soon. Best of luck!
take your son to the doctor, it is near the lymph glads int he armpit and you would not want it to get infected and spread.
moniter it, if it starts to get bigger, take him to hospital, as spider bites will eat through the skin fast, look online about it, look at pictures of them, I saw 2 people with huge ulcers within a week of brown recluse bite, Dr sent them home, almost died, so watch the bite closely
