A woman was left in agonising pain after a false widow spider feasted on her as she slept - resulting in 'golf ball sized' lump on her arm. Kayleigh Ward woke up in the morning to find her upper left arm severely swollen and red - with the infection continuing to spread.
The next day at work, the 27-year-old's arm 'tripled in size' and she was rushed to hospital, where she underwent blood tests and was prescribed antibiotics for the unknown wound. She went to bed that night with a hot water bottle on her arm to ease the pain - but it soon started 'seeping' with puss, Hull Live reports.
In a desperate bid to relieve the pain, the restaurant manager asked her sister Natalie Ward, 24, to help squeeze out the infection. Nauseating footage showing the thick, greyish fluid from oozing down her arm as Natalie applies pressure to the lump with her gloved hands.
