Common symptoms of a brown recluse spider bite include shivering, vomiting, nausea, fever, itching, shock and restlessness. The bite may come out as an injury of about 1 to 2 3/4 inches which takes several months of healing and will leave you with unsightly scars. The bite is usually deep and will cause pain eventually.
Red itching skin is the first symptom of the bite of a brown recluse spider. The area then develops into a blister, followed by an open sore, which in turn is accompanied by a rash of tiny red dots. Fever and nausea can also occur. If you are bitten by a brown recluse, see a doctor immediately.
