hello, my uncle 57 yrs old has been bitten it seems by a spider or he says chiggers because when he put clear polish on it he seen some small black bugs come out from under his skin. but he is sore in his joints (knees) he mentioned and the area that has been bit ( his left forearm ) is swollen down to his hand, and looks like something flesh-eating is going on. He cant breath well and is starting to slur his speech its happening pretty fast! no money to get the possibly life saving information. thank you for nothing!!! really scared and poor. that = no help! sleep well!
As a first line management you can take antihistamines like pheniramine for symptomatic relief.
If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated.
