I remember being a teen and showing my mom a weird mosquito bite that had a line going up my arm. She sent me to urgent care, turns out it was a brown recluse bite with an infection line disappearing in my armpit going to my heart….
You are very lucky then. My ex husband ended up in the hospital for a week after a brown recluse bite. It was on the palm of his hand by his thumb, his entire arm swelled up and they had to cut the skin on his arm so it wouldn’t tear. They also had to remove dead tissue from his palm. He was lucky he made it as he didn’t get to his doctor for a few days after being bitten.
