See a doctor: if you think it is a spider bit go and see a doctor spider bite could cause a lot of tissue necrosis that might need appropriate wound care either way if you are having a lot of pressure in the area the doctor can make the right diagnosis and treat it appropriately thank you for using health tap good luck

Skin infection: Increased pressure, pain, or redness could be a skin infection. A skin infection will not get better on it's own. I suggest you see your doctor for confirmation and antibiotics.
