I was just going to the car in the garage and spiders seem to like hangin out in dark places like that... I just remembered a few minutes ago, though, that I have some Magnascent Iodine here at the office, so I put a couple drops of that on the sting. Now that the Mag Iodine has stopped burning, it seems to have helped the itching at least! And I'm fine... just concerned about the 'knot' under the sting. Thanks!

On ants and wasps we use either essential oils or Traumeel cream. The Traumeel you have to rub in. Not sure I spelled that right but it's great. Sure hope you get better quickly.

I don't know what stung me. Yesterday morning on my way out the door I noticed a stinging, itchy sensation in my chest area (directly above the cleavage area). After getting to work and seeing myself in a mirror I noticed a good size welt with a 'hole' in the middle. All I have at work is some CS that is 5% DMSO (months old if that matters), so I dabbed the sting numerous times throughout the day. When I got home I applied a 40% DMSO to CS mix to a cotton ball and taped it on with a band aid and slept in it. Although it doesn't hurt, it's still really itchy, and feels like it's real hard underneath - the 'hard' part is about the size of a dime. The 'hole' area is kind of oozy but dried over looking. I forgot the 40% DMSO, so have just dabbed on the 5% off and on today. I have ordered a unit from ^V^, but haven't heard when I'm getting it yet, so I can't even experiment with that yet. I guess what concerns me is this hard 'core' (for lack of a better description) or whatever under the bite, I'm assuming it probably is full of the "poison" of whatever bit me and I'd like to get rid of it. It's NOT a boil, but could kinda resemble one with the hardness underneath. Any suggestions?!? Thanks in advance! Ruth
