Spider bite. Cause for concern? Venomous?

I got bit by a spider last night at about 4am and managed to trap it in a plastic container. I need help identifying it preferably sooner than later. I posted a video on YouTube here is the link. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
 
Deductively speaking..if the spider was poisonous then I would have other symptoms like major swelling and dizziness. I only have minor swelling and a barely visible bite mark.
 
Looks like a brown recluse to me. Oral antibiotic will cover ya. Their bite starts out as a pimple then starts to get an open sore after a few days. If you notice this call n see if primary care doc will give you some Keflex.

It may be a recluse. The legs and head are a little different. Otherwise it may be.
A good way to tell is if it jumps. A recluse will kind of jump when it moves.

Only if u ate it

Ok bad joke.... hope everything is going well.

Poison is digested, venom is injected into bloodstream.
