DONT PANIC!!!! - The ones that have problems are the ones that get infected, (Dr. Donna) Seger (medical director of Tennessee Poison Center, and a Vanderbilt professor) said. Ive seen these pictures on the Internet that arent representative of what really is out there. In February, 62-year-old Lakeland, Fla., resident Ronald Reese died after a spider bit the back of his neck in August, which became infected, developed into an abscess and pressed on his spinal cord. Reeses father said Reese was in the hospital several times for complications from the bite, and also declared the spider to be a brown recluse, even though his son was NEVER TESTED TO DETERMNIE what type of spider bit him. (Brown recluse spiders arent native to that part of Florida.) usatoday/story/news/nation/2014/07/28/brown-recluse-spider-bites/13267065/
