I guess it could be a brown recluse...or just about any spider bite...'cept a black widow...they are supposedly very painful and you'd know it if it bit ya. I honestly just thought it was an infected mosquito bite at first.
Thing is, Brown Recluse spiders like to hang out in dark undisturbed places, and Matthew doesn't! So I don't really think that's what it is.
Already, last night at around ten pm, the redness didn't look so inflamed. (Steve and I went in and checked it.) That zythromax is amazing.
Sounds like Matthew is doing better. Thank goodness for that!
