How Can Severe Skin Rash Along With Swelling In The Throat Be Treated?
I have been to the ER twice for extreme hives. I ve been on 50mg prednisone for 5 days, as well as benadryl and pepcid. The hives have gotten worse along with a slightly swollen throat, chills, and diarrhea. Should I go to the ER again? Is there really anything they can still do?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if it is the allergic disorder then initially it need to be managed with second generation antihistamine like Tab Loratadine and Levocetirizine, three times in day, in differential diagnosis such rash need to be ruled out for viral infection and auto-immune disorder, else it is nothing to worry hope this information helps.
