Insect Bite
I first noticed this nasty insect bite when I woke up Tuesday. It puffed up like a mosquito bite and itched like mad. But it worsened after that, changing color and getting more irritated, and the symptoms matched those of a spider bite more than a mosquito bite, especially with the fang marks.
It is doing better now (for all that it doesn't look it from the pictures) and it doesn't itch nearly as bad. And I went to the doctor yesterday because it is really scary with it being so close to my eye, and they seem to think it's clearing up and isn't infected, so that's good. Has anyone else had a similar experience and, if so, how long did it take to clear?

My brother got a pretty bad spider bite when we were kids. I think he was ok after a week or so.
Thanks Dan. I'm hoping it clears up soon. It's looking better today so it concerns me less. The location is what is most bothersome.
I just wanted to let everyone know that this has cleared up now and is no longer worrisome.
Very interesting to see what you were talking about, ouch!
Yeah, it totally got me worried. I'm glad it cleared up on its own.
