Default Something bit me!
Something bit or stung me on the bottom of my little toe last week and my toe swelled up a little, turned all red and itched like a mo-fo all the time for a few days. This morning I woke up and it hurt to walk on it so I got a mirror and there was a big swollen thingy on my toe! I stuck a needle in it and a bunch or clear liquid and some blood came out so I smeared some neosporin on it and went to work.

Now it's turning purple and I am getting a wee bit concerned. Not sure if I really want to go to the doctor about it and if it gets worse I suppose the worst that could happen is they have to cut of my little toe which wouldn't be that bad I guess.

What do you think??

It's probably only a spider bite and worse case scenario is you lose your leg.

I think you better get your ass to a doctor instead of asking a bunch of idiots on a forum.

I looked up recluse and widow bites and it said with those you get dizzy and nauseous and stuff but I haven't had any of that.

It's quite obvious you are having some type of reaction to the bite/sting.

Just ignore it and you'll go away
GO TO THE DOCTOR

OK, 2 votes for doctor and one vote for document necrosis from home for OT. Let's see if we get any more votes.

I got tagged by a scorpion on the foot 'bout a year ago. Not a helluva lotta pain, but itched like a mofo. No swelling or anything though.

It's too late to go to the doctor now, I'd have to wait until tomorrow anyway.

If that transpired over a day, no worry.


A week later and it's getting worse? The answer is obvious.

Fine! If it's the same or worse in the morning I'll go to the doctor.

Just save the money and cut it off now. Pinkies will just snap off clean at the knuckle with a decent pair of diagonals.
