Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. Spider bite can cause allergic reaction and pain. As of now you can take analgesics like ibuprofen or diclofenac for pain. Apply hot compresses. You can take antihistamines like hydroxyzine or cholrphenermine. Antihistamines helps I’m allergic response and pain and swelling resolve soon. If the size of lump increases or any symptoms like breathing difficulty, rush to your hospital immediately. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
