Spider bite?

What does a spider bite look like? DS has a red raised bump with three little pin marks in it. Should I be worried? It's right on his diaper line we were outside for a bit today but I never noticed anything.

Thanks!

    Hmm...could be! I would watch it for a day or so and make sure it improves instead of gets worse...bigger...spreading, etc. Hopefully it will just go down and away!

    Sounds like it could be a spider bite but I probably wouldn't worry about it. Keep an eye open for redness and swelling. If it gets warm to touch or if he gets a slight fever I would call but I really doubt that will happen.  I react to spider bit

    Sounds like a chigger bite to me especially since it right on the diaper line. They are harmless, crazy itchy but harmless.
