I don't know where you are, but in the American southwest there are deadly little spiders called "brown recluse" spiders. They can kill. The first
sign of a serious spider bite is the center turning black. that is evidence of the flesh dying and it can spread. check the internet for more info.
Elsewhere in the states there are "black widow" spiders that are almost as deadly. Obviously, you are concerned and should be as a decent father
would. All the best to you.
Yeah, that's true also. I thought brown recluse, but I'm not sure how large this child is. If it is a brown recluse, then that is not good. Necrosis
of the surrounding tissue.. and it is nasty, and painful. If left untreated she could lose her foot, and/or die from sepsis. Considering it's on the
end of the limb and all, circulation can be constricted quickly, among other things.
