Thread: Spider bite

Okay, after i brought my boys downstairs from their naps, my oldest (almost 3) starting yelling mommy oooowwwwwwweeeeeeeeee. I looked at his ankle and it was swolen, very red, and kinda oozing. I cleaned his ankle and had him hold an ice pack on it. The swelling has gone down a bit and i can see the puncture marks, they are about 1/8" to 1/4" apart. Its still very red and kinda oozing, but he wont let me or his daddy look at. We live in Okinawa and i have no idea what kind of spider bit my son. Anyone have any advice? Please and thank you!

If it's swelling and oozing, you really should take him to a hospital or doctor.
