Guest guest Posted April 25, 2006 Report Posted April 25, 2006 , We have had good luck with topical conditions using Tea Tree oil. It smells strong but kills anything that lives on the surface without killing healthy tissue. The pictures and hx. Of spider bite " look " internal. The enzymes from those bites keep going. Get to a dermatologist and try to find people who have worked with international travelers. Keep us posted. ( E. Abrahamson, D.C.)
