Very helpful replies here bars!
I don’t know how to post pics from my phone
Rash diagnosis is visual.

He wants you to diagnose it from his detailed description of woke up with this rash on my leg. Ok is it just irritated skin, hive type bumps, blisters, leg aids?

Any suggestions for this? Thanks
Don't be an idiot go to a doctor and make time.

Spider bite , shingles , staph all sound reasonable from the few details and all of our lack of medical expertise. Yeah..if it’s a rash and it hurts, you need to go to the doc. Risking some serious stuff. Think about the stories you hear of people suddenly dying from something simple like this. Don’t be an idiot.

Spider bites are not nearly as common as people think. A break in the skin plus bacteria is usually the culprit.

Does it itch,or just hurt?
Make sure it's not MRSA(Staph).

Based on the OP, you're already losing your ability to speak English coherently.

Cellulitis. Go to Dr. Now. DO NOT WAIT.

I’ve had cellulitis in my face before. It HURTS and is nothing to play around with. You need to see the doctor ASAP after the first symptom appears. Seriously, if you’re at work right now, leave and go to the doctor or urgent care. You need antibiotics now. Luckily mine was caught in time but still took a week to heal.

If you think it is a spider bite or some type of infection.. Save yourself time in the long run and go have it looked at ASAP.
I had a spider bite on my arm a few years ago. I was self treating it and kept saying "one more day, let me see how it is tomorrow".. Until it got really bad. Had to go get it cut and packed and was on strong antibiotics for two weeks.

really don’t have time to goto urgent care
Don’t have time to go see a medical professional but have time to have your leg fall off. Sounds like your time management and priorities suck baw. There’s time for anything that’s important enough. Go to a dr.

Herpeghonoencepholoaidscoronaebola virus from a black mamba bite is nothing to sneeze at. Before Friday you seek care by either a med professional or a witch doctor.

Huge rash, hurts to touch - shingles is my guess.
Posted on 2/17/20 at 9:42 am to FLTech
Spider bite is like a less than 1% possibility. People always jump to that conclusion because frick spiders, but a spider has no desire to seek out some person to bite and waste it's venom.
If it's rapidly spreading it could very well be shingles. MRSA would be excruciating pain to the touch, but the doc can at least test for that and get you started on antibiotics or rule it out. You need to go ASAP though because MRSA is highly contagious
