looked like a zit. small whitehead. popped it. now it looks too red to be a zit. i just read something about staph the other day...not sure if i'm being paranoid or not.

Go get it checked out is the best bet.

Yeah... Better go check it out... I had the same thing once... Luckily it wasn't staph it was a brown recluse bite... SUCKED!

idk which is worse lol prob staph cuz it takes longer to heal, but brown recluse can kill u if it doesnt get treated quickly

neosporin and alcohol wash

dude where is that at? i have little bumps on upper arm and sometimes it can get acne on your arm..... i know its nasty, but i learned the hardway that human bodies arent all beautiful perfect things, like everybody is saying, i would go get it checked out, and i would put some cream on it for tonight, like some neosporin (just for the hell of it) and if it starts hurting, or if u start feeling sharp stabbing pains out of it, i would go the e.r. right away and tell them u think u got bit by a spider (even if that isnt the case just so u can get in fast, and dont have to wait for hours)

and wow im blind i would ask where it is when u said where it was right above the pic t(-_______-t)

Yeah man... I've been lucky and haven't caught staph yet... But I'm REALLY cautious to avoid it. But the spider bite was BAD! left a massive hole in my leg and ate away most of my calf muscle. I got really sick and lost two days of memory from what I think was a sudden high fever kicking out my short term memory or something... All I remember is waking up naked in a bathtub two days after my last memory because apparently my fever got so high my girlfriend put me in the tub to lower it... I dunno... But I fucking hate spiders now lol

recluse bites respond to ice treatment. the bite area and swelling will minimize. staph doesn't give a shit about your ice. I had a spider bite that went staph.. it sucked so bad.. especially when i got ankle locked on my bandaged wound

(if i knew it was staph i wouldnt have rolled)
