red and itchy out of nowhere?---yay spider bite!

One minute I was sipping some water....the next my face starts burning and itching. Then my arms and back too. Skin is red and itches/burns.

Didn't have anything for breakfast different from normal. Except for a nectarine....but I've had others recently with no issue. And no history of a fruit allergy.

I can breathe fine...I just really, really itch.

I found a black dot on my arm, and it kinda itches when I touch it. Did a google search, and sure enough its a spider bite!

Do I need to be concerned about any infections from a spider bite?

I hate that. Those little buttholes just sneak up on you.

I've gotten a couple of these little, red, slightly protruding and itchy bumps on my ankles, over the past week or so. They're like tiny pimples, but without the pus and stuff.

I had thought that maybe they were just skin manifestions of the infections, but.. I doubt it.

Anyway, yeah.. wish I could live far, far away from all these bugs. Well, the bite-y ones anyway. Though, I get the feeling that a place like that wouldn't be much fun to live in.

*shrugs*

I hope it goes as quickly as it came, without issues.

Cya!
