British actor Stephen Fry has sought medical attention
for a spider bite.
The actor sustained the injury earlier this week, and he
is now on a 10-day course of antibiotics to treat it, reports contactmusic.com.
In a series of posts on his Twitter.com page before his
doctor's appointment, Fry wrote, "Bite mark now hot and huge. Shall have
my spider bite looked at it (in) case it's a Brown Recluse spider and I get
necrosis and ulceration, eew."
Post the consultation with the doctor, he wrote:
"Heavens: antihistamine cream, hydrocortisone and a ten day course of
antibiotics - all for a little nip from an incy wincy spider." (Source)
