Pam,

 

I don't see a question here. However, if you have any concerns at all about your child, I would call his doctor straight away. Spider bites in particular can be problematic, depending on what type of spider produced the bite.

 

I wouldn't wait. Your son's overall health could depend on you taking action.

 

Best,

Kathi
