xcgirl21 answered Thursday January 5 2012, 2:54 am: The very same thing happened to my boyfriend. He never went to the doctor and the pain became so unbearable that he had no choice. And because he waited, the doctors had to perform a surgery to go in and cut the infection out. Once he was done with surgery, they told him they had found something called Gangrene. It had basically eaten his skin and rotted it. They said that if they had known how bad it was BEFORE they went into surgery, they would've just amputated his whole leg. I am telling you this because I don't want this to happen to you, and the doctors still have to treat you regardless of if you can afford it. Your health is more important. DO NOT think that this will just go away. My boyfriend is a 20 year old man and it was painful for him.. I'm sure for a 13 year old girl it will be much worse. Go get help. Please.

Even if you don't think you can afford it it's really not worth the risk, you can get a really bad and deadly disease, so you need to go see a doctor immediately! [ millie96's advice column | Ask millie96 A Question ]
blr51697 answered Tuesday January 3 2012, 5:21 pm: I know that this may not be what your family wants but you NEED to see the doctor because it seems like it is dead and really really infected. They will ask how you will pay and all of that and when you go to sigh in just tell them that you don't have enough money and really can't afford it. But there is not doubt about it but YOU NEED TO GO IMMEDIATELY GO TO THE DOCTORS NOW. before something else happens and just to say this could end up being fatal which is deadly.
hope I helped.
hope you get better
if you need anything else you can ask me

DangerNerd answered Tuesday January 3 2012, 5:08 pm: Hi there,
This isn't something you should try and treat at home. I know you have money trouble, but the ER will let you make payments. If you don't have enough to make payments, you can get help with the bill from the government.
You MUST see a doctor about this. MUST.
If you do not seek medical attention NOW, you will regret it.
Please, listen to me. It is VERY important that you let the doctors have a look at this wound that came from your spider bite.
