2 days ago myself and two others were moving a large piece of work out equipment to the back yard. While going around the house I hit a spider web with my left forearm. with in a couple hours it got a little itchy and swollen. The second (yesterday) during work I noticed that if pressure is applied a sort of green puss came out a little. It was still swollen and itchy. Today I found if I squeeze, it a little clear puss will come out. I'm assuming that is the white blood cells and that they did their job. because there is no more greenish puss. However, now The bite is still itchy and swollen, also my forearm around the area is sore. almost as if it my wrist were sprained. just a little higher up on the arm now.
I don't know what kind of spider it is. I didn't even see it.
Is there anything I should know about? Is there anything that I should do or should I keep on waiting for it to get better?
Also I don't have insurance so I don't want to go to the doctor about this and pay $100 unless I have to.

Since your arm is so sore, the bite may have affected more than your skin. Even though it is expensive for you, I suggest seeing a doctor. Some kinds of spider bites are bad, or you may be sensitive to bites and stings.
