A member asked:
Will the swimming pool hurt a brown recluse bite ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See a dermatologist: Spider bites are RARE and occur mostly between Alabama and southern California. Nearly all such diagnoses are wrong. Frequently they are actually staph infections. So another question is that of spreading infection to others. See a dermatologist. Unless you saw and felt the bite, then took the spider to an expert for identification, assume it is something other than a spider bite.
