Common Questions and Answers about Antihistamine for spider bites
antihistamine
My husband has big bites on his inner thigh, penis, and just under his scrotum. They are itchy and painful. Not mosquito bite. Could it be spider bites. Read up on bed bugs and I don't think that is the answer either. Do you have any suggestions? Could it be baby spider bites???

the black widow spider and the brown recluse spider. The symptoms of these spider bites are usually chills, fever, nausea, severe abdominal pain or fluid-filled blister that leads to ulcer formation. Over-the-counter antihistamine medications may help with the itching. But if the symptoms persists, it would be best to have this evaluated further by your doctor for proper management.
Take care and regards.

you may want to go to our "Ask an Expert" forum. Unfortunately I have no experience with spider bites and how to treat the scars from them.
Flea bites - these usually occur in greater numbers than spider bites, and mostly occur on the legs (and the diaper area for crawling and sitting infants). They often are not painful at the time of the bite, and usually become increasingly itchy. Different people will react to flea bites to varying degrees. Some people are very sensitive to flea bites. Common places to get flea bites include houses with pets, beaches (sand fleas) and parks.
She has and has been bitten by mosquitoes too, they cause her swelling too, not to the extent of the spider bites. After the 3 years of spider bites she and I and hopefully her dad try to keep her out of places and areas where she can get bit. BUT I SURE WISH he would have his home professionally sprayed, he just bombs it, not sure if that helps, he did get new carpet and she has been bite free for 2 years SO THANKFUL.
Hi,
Were you able to see the spider responsible for these bites? Are there other signs or symptoms present? Unless a spider is observed in the act of biting, it should not be assumed that a spider bite has occurred. If bitten by a spider, however, you should clean the site of the spider bite well with soap and water. Apply a cool compress over the spider bite location and aspirin or acetaminophen may be used to relieve minor signs and symptoms in adults.
I've gotten tons of spider bites before. For the most part they're similar to a mosquito bite, raised, irritated and a little hard. However, in my opinion they itch less and I do have less of a reaction to them. The mass majority of spider bites are nonvenomous so unless you start feeling extreme burning, pain, nausea or become feverish there's no need to worry.
I can't tell if what I have is a rash or if it's just a bunch of bug bites? I've counted at least 165 bumps or bites on my body. Most of them are on my stomach, thighs and sides. I have a few on my calves and a spattering of them on my left forearm. They don't really itch, some of them are a little irritated and sensitive to the touch but most of them, like the ones on my stomach are pretty tiny and painless.
In the summer of 2007, i began to notice little odd bumps that would appear on the front of my thighs. They are pimple like and itch only sometimes. I first thought they were spider bites. But after washing my bedding and also living in other places besides my home i still got these bumps. They only seem to appear in the summer time when it it most embarrassing when i wear shorts. I only get these bumps on my front thighs.
How big has the area gotten? Generally the swelling and redness shouldn't be bigger than a quarter around the site.
I'm gonna guess you can see two puncture wounds. Since its down there, probably happened while you slept so you don't know what spider did it.
As long as you weren't bitten by a brown recluse, black widow or tarantula you and baby should be okay. Are there other venomous spiders in your local area? A venomous bite would be bad for both of you.
I have some type of insect bite (I believe spider) on my stomach that has only gotten larger and itchier in the past few days. I've had all types of insect bites and stings before but never had this reaction.
At first, the bite was slightly elevated and red. It was about the size of a quarter. Over the past few days, it's spread out significantly and is still elevated. It's about the size of 3 quarters. It's also dry and bumpy and has gotten more red.
Bed bug bites are small, and there are normally many in a row. Also there will be many bites than just a couple most of the time. I had bed bugs once and had so many I mistook it for a bad rash because the bites didn't really look like bites. So you could just have a misquote running around or maybe a spider.
the first 3 times they were on my arms, and this time they are on my thigh. people think they are spider bites and i even went to the doctor once when they were healing and she sat 5 feet away from me and told me thats what they looked like. i dont think spider bites are that common - to have 10 in 3 1/2 - 4 months?
anyways - these spots are hard in the center and it feels bumpy - sometimes the bumps appear to be a pattern, sometimes they do not.
ve been getting alot of spider bite recently as there are alot of spiders in my Home. Other members of my household have gotten spider bites. I know I've gotten one if my skin gets really itchy and when I scratch them
With my
Nails they turn into a sore. I got one near my crotch, it got itchy then I scratched it and it
Turned into a sore but I didn't keep scratching it so it didn't get infected and healed in a couple days.
