What Is The Treatment When Bitten By A Garden Wolf Spider?
Question: if I was bitten by a garden wolf spider in the throat while syphoning a hose do I need to worry? what should I do?
Brief Answer:
Not to worry
Detailed Answer:
Hi
I am Dr Mittal
I have read your query
Unless you are allergic to its venom, you may have only mild pain, swelling and itching over the bite site.
So I wount think you have to worry, cause simple medicines like paracetamol, and levcetrizine may be able to help you with the problems.
So I suggest you do not worry.
However if you feel faint, or have breathlessness, or feel a racing heart, a visit to emergency department is warranted.
Please feel free to contact me for more information.
Best of luck
