What type of spider is this?
So I got bit by this little guy last night on my left for arm and today I'm feeling a lot of muscle pain in my left leg and alot more in my foot. Could it just so happen my leg hurts just because or would it be spider related? There is no mark where is bit my but he definitely did. Kinda felt like a mosquito bite. I live in southern Oregon if that helps

This doesn't look to be any problem spider, so likely any bite would be much like an ant sting or worst case, a mild bee sting. Not likely to do much more than the initial discomfort and maybe a lingering itch for a few hours.
Spiders don't just run around biting people but many can if trapped or smacked against the skin.
I constantly handle spiders and so rarely get bitten, I don't think about it.
The last bite was 10 years ago from trapping a little jump spider between my fingers, certainly no big deal.
The only spider that might cause any significant injury or symptoms in Oregon, is the western black widow. (even the hobo spider has been shown to be harmless.)
If your symptoms concern you, you could always go to a clinic for a diagnosis.
