I thought I had one heck of a bruise, until the pharmacist at work saw it and said, “That looks like a spider bite. I have friends who’ve had bites like that and their skin dies and they need a skin graft. You should see your doctor.”
Ok, then.
On the way to my appointment, it did occur to me that I did actually see a spider last week while I was moving things from the basement, but thought nothing of it.
She said it was most probably a bug bite because I have other bruises and they are not fluid filled and the skin is not almost-numb.
I knew there’s a reason I’m terrified of spiders.
I’m on antibiotics.
I think I’ll live. 🙂
oh dear me!

That photo terrified me. We hospitalize people with stuff like that. I hope that it has resolved.
My hand is looking much better now! And I did not have to go to the hospital. 🙂 xxx
