I live in Florida and I was walking my dog this morning in a grassy area. My dog started barking because there was another dog getting close to us so I was trying to calm him down when I felt something pinch the top of my foot. At first, I thought that I had just walked through a dry branch and got cut by it so I kept walking but then it started to itch and burn right after. I started scratching my foot and I thought I might have something stuck inside of it because there was no blood or visible cut.

I came inside and asked my husband to check if he saw something and I had what appeared to be 2 small mosquito bites right next to each other and another small one under it. Kind of like a triangle. It’s been hours now and my foot didn’t swell, the marks are gone but my foot still feels like its burning inside. Does anyone know of what it could have been?

I got a bite behind my left ear, I noticed it when I was at work. My ear had been red and hot to the touch. It feels round and is just like stories 17 and 83.

Noticed a rash like spot on my upper thigh after showering. Prior to showering I was doing some household cleaning at one point I did kill a small spider light brown a bigger than an ant didn’t appear to have many legs as a spider, but it was dead it’s hard to remember. My mark looks like a rash rather than any bite marks I’ve seen earlier…red in color a bump, no pain, yet. This happened around 12 hours ago and the only change is that its beginning to have a minor itch, but nothing constant or painful it’s size is about the size of a circle made by putting your pointer finger and thumb together at the tip. My plan is to visit my primary care doctor tomorrow to check it out, but if anyone can identify it or exclude it from anything serious, please feel free! Thanx.

I was bitten by something (spider) Sunday afternoon when picking up limbs in my backyard. I didn’t feel the bite and didn’t notice anything was wrong until 2 hours later. Then I saw what looked like a pimple on my left hand middle finger. Then it swelled up and got purple and I couldn’t sleep so went to ER around 2 a.m. Doctor examined it and gave me 2 antibiotics and some lorcet for pain enough for ten days. I had a similar biter last October just below my elbow. It took almost 2 weeks for that to go away using antibiotics. I am going to send pictures and would like help identifying what bit me.

Thanks,
John

Last fall I was bitten below my elbow while I slept; while just three nights ago I was bitten on my left middle finger. Both bites became A Small mound;swollen and purple with a tiny hole in the middle. We live in North Alabama and have found both dead and alive tiny spiders that jump on occasion. I believe I was bitten while we slept. I sleep on side directly facing the wall and windows. So far I have been the only one bitten by something. There is a small wooded area next to us even though we are well inside the city limits. Does anyone know what keeps biting me in my sleep?
