Um yeah i'm kinda worried, i got bit by a spider on my toe of all places
 and it is swelling pretty fast and it burns and hurts/throbbing....i have never had a spider bite do that before and i just moved to Florida not even a year ago and i dont know what kind of spiders are around here...my question is should i go to the ER or wait and see what happens? Im really nervous about this.

Please go to the ER or to your GP. Always err on the side of caution when it comes to spider bites. Please let us know how you're doing and I hope you feel better very soon.

Better be careful you may be allergic to whatever has bitten you. Check your temperature and keep a close eye on it. I advise you go to the hospital asap. Its better to be safe then sorry. Hope its nothing major
stay safe

I didn't go to the ER cause the swelling went down. As of today the blister looking thing pop and it dried out. Now its just a fading red spot.
So what ever spider bit me didn't do anything to major. I will still keep an eye on it but i think I'm ok.
