Another doctor found that it worked well even after 6 months to remove the pain that continued and helped it to heal naturally. A physician here in OK had started using a modified taser to treat fiddleback (local term for brown recluse spider as there is a “violin” shapped brown spot on its back) bites as it interrupts the toxic poisons that cause the pain and damage. We discovered that it works very well for spider bites including fiddlebacks, as well as mosquito bites etc. We live in OK and we a few years ago had purchased a “sparker” to relieve pain (it is essentially the part of a spark plug that causes the spark), they had taken them off the market for a while but have seen them on Heartland of America and other catalog books again). The heat would destroy the proteins in the venom, that cause the damage. The Australian hospital suggested the best immediate treatment was to submerge the hand/arm in the hottest water he could handle. Wrong!!! Hospital contacted one in Australia who said it would take a few days to send the US some antivenom. Went to the local hospital who advised him to call the store, because they should carry antivenom. A few minutes later as i was taking my coat off in school, it bit me.Īlso, many years later a friend who owned the local fish store (pet fish), wasn’t paying as much attention as he should have been while cleaning a tank that contained a lionfish, amongst others. I had had my coat laying on the floor of a local luncheonette, beneath a pinball machine i was playing. lt felt like someone was repeatedly jabbing me with a red hot needle. I have to differ though about the pain mentioned. It bit me on the back of my left hand, between my thumb and index finger. Little to no damage to my skin as the spider was a juvenile. Entomologist at local aggie college identified it. Got bit by a baby brown recluse back in the 70’s on Long Island, much further north than the map indicates. Black salve is also good to treat skin cancer, one spot at a time. If nothing is wrong the salve will NOT do anything, so nothing to loose. This is the ONLY method to keep the venom from continuing to spread.īlack salve is a “drawing salve”. The black salve isolates the dead and infected tissue, allowing the body’s natural healing to take place. The sooner you treat the better because the venom spreads and dissolves your tissue. There is some minor pain at the site associated with this for a couple of days, nothing unbearable though. After about 10-14 days the “sack” will come out and leave a hole. She put black salve (about a match head worth)and covered with a band-aid and told me to remove and clean lightly with peroxide. Went to the local health food store and the lady there took one look and identified it. Thought it was a pimple, but did not act like a pimple.
