I think I have a spider bite/ about 2 weeks ago I noticed a nick on my forearm that was bloody.. I thought nothing of it just thought I had scratched myself...then the are began to have a dork ring for around it... black bruise type color around it.....now 2 weeks later it is starting to fade?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, it may not be spider bite but it may be some viral infection once it is confirmed then it can be given try with Calamine lotion, some time may needs antiviral but diagnosis is must, if this is the viral infection then be patience it will be fined soon hope this information helps.
