Brown recluse spider bites may feel like a sting or may not be noticed at first. Pain can develop within hours, followed by a reddish or purplish ring. Serious bites can develop a black eschar that sheds after about 2 to 5 weeks, leaving an ulcer through the skin and fat. Healing may take many months and can leave a deep scar.

Many other skin conditions are mistaken for brown recluse bites. A true recluse lesion is usually single, dry, flat or sunken, and less than 10 cm across. Pus or other drainage points toward another cause. Bacterial infection, especially MRSA, is among the most common mimics.

Is that a brown recluse?? ughhhh

Yeah, that looks to me like the brown recluse. Their bite causes necrosis and leaves really deep horrific scars. As far as I know there's no true cure to stop the necrosis once it starts. The second picture doesn't look like a bite from a brown recluse though - the bite is usually localized to one specific area whereas that "wound" is all over the arm (looks more like a burn wound or skin cancer!).

My son's speech therapist was bitten week before last by an unidentified spider. The wound is already bad enough that the docs are having to pack it with gauze/cotton. I know it has to smart like a beyotch.
