Suggest Treatment For Joint Pains After Spider Bite
My 13yo daughter was bit by a spider, we assume (2 fang marks on ankle). She has had joint pain in elbows, knees, and ankles (randomly) for 2 weeks. (We noticed the fang marks after 1 week.) Blood work came back negative for Lyme s and rheumatoid arthritis. What do you think?

Dear Sir/ Madam,
Thank you for posting your query at healthcaremagic.com
It is unusual to have spider mark like that, it coud be something else. Even if spider bites, there will be no joint pain.
For Joint pain you can give her simple paracetamol (SOS), this will take care of pain, along with this rest.
Hope you find informative.

With best wishes,
