What poisonous weed did I touch?

0 1
Hi,

 

I live in Michigan and pulled a weed that was about 6' tall with narrow leaves (no flowers), and thick stalks.  I instantly felt pain and started swelling immediately.  I have  burning bumps that look like mosquito bites.  They do not itch.  They just hurt alot.

 

It doesn't look like giant hogweed.  Anybody have any ideas?

 

Thank you in advance!

I would go see a doctor right away............next time you work around weeds use heavy gloves, long shirt, long pants and heavy socks with study shoes.  They have something that they can give you have someone drive you there.  Be safe.
