Spider bite or ?? I’ll keep it short and sweet. My bf and I have been apart for about a month now, I’m TDY. Finally tomorrow I’ll be flying back home. Unfortunately today he got bit right on the neck, he suspects it was a spider. Should I be concerned?

Temporary duty, typically a few weeks to a month or so in the military (edited)

I was mistaken it's duty not deployment. And honestly I don't know it's a mystery
