Is Severe Abdominal Pain Related To A Spider S Bite?

I got bit by a spider about a week ago, developed a large red rash around the bite area. It was swollen and itched. I put Hydrocortisone 1% on it, the redness is going away. For the past few days, I have been having terrible stomach pains? Is it possible that the toxins from the bite are still in my body and I m flushing them out?

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
No, your stomach pain is not due to spider bite.
Your stomach pain is mostly due to hyperacidity and gastritis.
So better to take pantoprazole tablet twice daily before food for 5 days.
Avoid hot and spicy food.
If still you have stomach pains then consult doctor and get done ultrasound examination of abdomen to find out the cause.
Spider bite is unlikely for your abdominal pain.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
