I woke up 2 days ago and had a minor ache in my foot, and figured I steped on it wrong. Then the next day it was in extruciating pain with no bite mark-just swelling. It could've only been a black widow or a scorpion. Anyone know which?

Thanks,

Black widow or Brown Recluse, if it was a recluse, you should know in a day or so when the flesh starts to rot.

Be careful - staph infections can look like spider bites as well.

It was a black widow, according to poison control.
