What does red streak mean coming from spider bite?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Could be cellulitis: Please see your doctor immediately. Often, patients who think they have a spider bite actually have a skin infection. Red streaks coming from the affected area could be a sign of cellulitis, which can be a more serious skin infection. It requires prescription antibiotics in order to be treated.
