Went hunting this weekend and woke up Saturday morning with what looked like a spider bite on my Left index finger. Well it started swelling and I drained it and went on by Sunday I couldn't even put a glove on. Came home and got some Benadryl and slept through the the cowboys game (good thing apparently). Drive to San Antonio this morning to take care of some customers. Well on the way home I couldn't take it no more and stopped at Texas med clinic. Well I didn't get just anti biotics. They were worried the infection had spread past the hand and was hurting in my arm and elbow. So they cut my finger open and stuck 6"'s of gauze and I go back tomorrow for more fun and possibly some real surgery.

Thanks, bow hunting will be a little difficult. Hopefully the got all the infection out. But now it hurts like I have a badger latched to my finger.

That's no good. I'm one to let things go on as well. But apparently we shouldn't let these things fester.

It was some kind of bite and then it got infected. And having been recently diagnosed with diabetes that is not a good combination.

Circulation issues that come with Diabeties sure makes things more difficult to heal. Good luck and keep us posted.

Brown recluse? My nieghbor was bitten on his pinkie two years ago. He waited until he couldn't stand the pain, before going to see his doctor. Almost lost his finger.

Well they dug around again and the infection spread. So now another anti biotic and can't keep food down.

Yikes. Doesn't look fun at all. Hope you have a safe and speedy recovery.

I got stung 3 times in the leg (under my jeans) the other day. Yours is worse.

Cibolo....Father was a diabetic and got a spider bite that did the same thing..Problem was he was a smoker too...Quit smoking for 4 weeks and not only did the bite heal but some of the sores he had on the ball of his foot closed as well...Hyperbariac chamber might help as well with the blood flow....
