It's a pretty disgusting story. But if anyone is interested...
The Spider StorySo I got bit by a spider once in my room. I never actually saw the spider, but felt the bite. I had just finished doing sit-ups and push-ups for the night and had been lying on the floor. It didn't hurt that much so I thought nothing of it.
A couple days later, I felt a lump on the side of my leg, I got worries thinking it could be something serious like cancer. The lump was slightly discolored and was lightly rd. I didn't say anything and thought I would wait a couple days before doing anything about it. Over the next week the lump grew bigger and bigger and more red. Then finally it started to show a large purple area and itch like crazy.
I had no idea what was going on with it, but due to various reasons, didn't want to go to the doctor. The bump eventually started to balloon up more and eventually started leaking all over the place. I had to keep a bandage on it for a solid couple days as the thing drained. It was legitimately the grossest thing I had ever seen. Only after it shrunk down did I see the purple areas were in the shape of two circles right next to one another, obviously fang marks. A couple days later, while cleaning up, I found a smashed brown spider (looked like a brown recluse. It had a violin shaped mark and everything) right near where I had exercised. It took awhile for the bite to go shrink down completely and it itched for weeks on end. About two years later, to this day I still have those tiny purple fang marks on my leg. It was a scary time because I had no idea what was wrong until I found the spider and googled what happens with their bites
tl;dr:
I was bit by a (possible) brown recluse; had no idea what was happening with the bite, and it was messy
