Suggest Treatment For Spider Bite
spider bite perhaps, in northern ohio...small red circle with white in the middle..this is the third time this summer I've been bit. I actually saw the spider in July, it had a web in between the slats on my deck and right where I sit at the table. It was medium sized and when I poked a stick through the web, it took off running across the deck..any idea what kind it might be?

Thanks for your query at HCM!
I suggest you must identify the type of spider.
Clean the site with soap and water.
Cool compress can be applied.
You can take aspirin or acetaminophen (Tylenol) and antihistamines(Cetrizine)
If your symptoms persists then must see your doctor.
Take care!
