I am not a doctor, so take this with a grain of salt, however I was bitten by a Brown Recluse about 8 months ago, felt just like what you described, the next day the pain went away, until a week later when the back of my leg started rotting. Than I waited about two week cause I'm a dumb ***. Still have the spot, had to go on a bunch of anti-biotics and it hurt like hell.
Keep your eyes CLOSE on it.
I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. - Henry David Thoreau
I live in Rhode Island too and from my understanding their are no brown recluse in our state. My guess is a wasp stung you in a sensitive spot in your leg. I'd still keep a look out after the wound but other than that, I think your OK, if things feel worse, call the doctor; But thank god for almost virtually no poisonous animals/insects here.
