What Causes Spider Sting Like Sensation And Swelling On The Neck Area?

Im a contractor. 6 days ago I started having a sensation of tiny spiders nibbling on one specific area on my neck , several times i reached around to pinch whatever this critter was. With the exception of a minor itch ans occasional strand of what felt like spider web in my hair i was left with little.bite marks along my collar. Next.to.show were 2 specific fang like marks on my spinal column approximately 6 inchs down from hair line. This has become swollen and has now become a triangle set of bite marks. Ive showered and shampooed severl times but these little bite sensations persist.

Hi,

Consult an orthopedician and get an MRI neck for further assessment.

It could be a spine-related problem probably.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
