Suggest Remedy For Spider Bite On Buttocks
Question: I have a spider bite on butt tree days ago it's scabbing but stil bump and it's huge dark mark
Brief Answer:
Local cellulitis
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for contacting HCM with your health care concerns
You have a spider bite that is gradually improving but there is still a dark lump in the area. This is the local reaction to the bite and may be low grade infection. If this area becomes larger and gets redder that you have secondary infection and will need an antibiotic to help heal the infection. If the area is getting better it may just take about a week or two to completely heal.
To help the healing I recommend using warm compresses on the area. This will help accelerate the healing.
