A member asked:
Need doctor help! is my visible and dark vein because of a spider bite or a minor injury? what signs to look for?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If there is just a: Visible, dark vein with no other findings - not sure why you would think it was a spider bite. Spider bites can have variable appearances. It might cause a pink or red bump with no symptoms. Or it could itch or be painful. Venomous spiders may cause significant pain radiating far from the site, cramping, sweating, necrosis of tissue or worse if there is an allergic reaction.
