So I got bitten 3 weeks ago been taking antihistamines and antihistamine cream.
Last night my legs was on fire (tbh they still are). Took myself to A&E at 1:45 this morning I didn't get seen until 4:30am. Then gone to work at 6:30 so today is a killer.
So apart from the antibiotics have given me and probably a cold bath when I get home from work what other ways could soothe my legs?
Also who has had a spider bite before and how did you cope?

Sounds like cellulitis, hope you feel better soon, I’d a nasty bite from a horsefly that left me in a similar position. |

"Are you australian? Going to a&e for a spider bite is a little extreme."
This Australian would go straight to A&E, do not pass go, do not collect $200
(Although when I think spider bite, I think redbacks and funnelwebs. A&E is necessary for the not dying thing ) |

Tom knew this is on the increase. It could of been a False Widow spider but never discount what these amateur tropical insect keeper types have let escape from their aquariums. A and E is the best place to go, but if Tom was on triage he would have fastracked the OP. |

I take it you've never been bitten by a false widow (the native cousin to the black widow). My legs are absolutely ballooned up. |
