Could I Have Gotten Bit By A Spider In The Middle Of The Night?
bug bite??
I woke up with a lump like a knot on my
forehead and it was red and warm to the touch with light red dot barely visible in middle. the swelling gave me a migrane. could I have gotten bit by a spider in the middle of the night? cause I also have 2 other swollen like bumps on arms but these became itchy hours later

Hi,
Thanks for writing to HCM.
Yes that can be an insect bite. Take any antihistaminic like cetrizine tabs for a day or two and it should subside. If it dosent then show to a dermatologist.
