Could The Itching With Redness And Welts Be Due To Novocain Spray?
I had a sinus operation and a week later they sprayed novacain up my nose . With in one hour later I started itching all over. My arm would itch, get red with welts. In twenty minutes it would clear up. Then my back would itch . This has continued for 2 months. Could this have been the spray?
