Yesterday morning something bit me on the underside of my forearm near my wrist, over a vein. It hurt when it bit me but by the time I looked down, whatever it was, was gone. However, the location of the bite immediately swelled up and a rash spread from the site all the way around the side of my arm from elbow to wrist. The rash went away within a few hours but I have pain (a throbbing ache) that goes from my shoulder to my fingertips. Today the site is a small red bump with a blister type head on it. When I popped it, it turned into a crater with a dark dot in the middle. The area around the site and around my wrist area is hard as a rock and hot to the touch, with some swelling. Should I go get it checked out or is there a way to remove the venom from whatever bit me?
Hi, From history it seems that there might be having allergic reaction at the site due to poisonous bite. There is possibility of having thrombophlebitis giving rise swelling, pain and rashes. You might require medicine like antibiotic, anti-allergy and anti-inflammatory medicine to get cure. Consult your doctor and get examined. Ok and take care.
