Big concern where I am is that it might be from a brown recluse.
They say after the initial pain it doesn't hurt too much -- until it
turns black and falls off.
What I thought was a scratch or bruise during the fencing thing last
week was evidently a spider bite. The area, right where my sock ends,
now has a somewhat rectangular red spot about the size of my ring
fingernail. There's sort of a hard spot in the skin there. It has me
interested.
