Be careful - lot's of people think they have a spider bite when what they really have is a staph infection. Now a days, a staph infection is nothing to mess with because staph has become resistant to traditional antibiotics used to treat it in the past. In fact, people are dying due to staph infections that can no longer be treated.
A couple of summers ago, I had what I thought was a pimple on between my inner thigh and my ball sack. I went to the doctors and was treated for cellulitis - a cellular inflamation. But soon my ball sack was the size of a melon. Luckly, after a treatment with a combination of three antibotics, one of which I was allergic to and had caused a terrible skin itching that kept me awake at night, it went away.
But I have an aunt who's staph infection remained in her body and would manifest itself in different places, like in her dental work in her mouth, or in her elbow after she bashed it on something. This residual infection continued for about a year.
This guy may not have staph, but you should all know it is out there, mistaken frequently for spider bites, and can be DEADLY because the bacteria had mutated in response to the traditional antibiotic treatments.
Staph is a prime example that evolution is real!
