    It could cause something that looks like a blister. If it get's bigger or you see red or blue lines running from it (under skin) or it bruises or breaks open and looks nasty, see a doctor or go to a walk in medical clinic. ER as a last resort. Some spider bites can cause sever damage. Google spider bites and see "images". You'll be amazed at the damage one spider bite, left unattended can do.
    Could be a staph infection. careful.
    Funny, I was bit by a very small spider yesterday and was concerned about its effects but I just cleaned off the area and went back to work in the yard. The last month GNATS (no-see-ems) have been biting me so I just assumed it was another gnat at first. I forgot about it and mentioned it to my wife about 10 hours later and she FREAKED OUT. My finger had a small oval white discolor on it but it didn't hurt. I knew I should have taken it more seriously but I shrugged it off.

    Luckily its fine today. I now wear gloves ALL THE TIME when working in the yard.
