Hi I believe I have a spider bite on the top of my foot it is red and oozing and my I tore foot is in pain as well as swelling I have not seen a doctor due to this just starting 2 days ago . I am a female age 15 my grandmother told me we will go to doctor if it doesn t stop hurting in 2 days and or I see a red line pointing to my heart but I think I need a second opinion
mostly spiders do not bite until provoked.. and it caused only mild reactions like inflammation, itching, redness.. but some spiders in US like black widow spider, brown recluse spider, tarantulas in southern Us.. these spiders venom is neurotoxin and. may lead to serious I'll effects.. so if u are in India. don't worry but if u are in US Then should visit your doctor..
