How Can Swollen Eyes Due To An Allergic Reaction Be Treated?
Yesterday something caused a reaction which began with painful tingling along gum line, tongue and lips. As time passed I began to itch everywhere from scalp to palms of hands which would either produce a large welt or smaller clusters. I showered and toweled dried but did not use lotion or deodorant after. By now my face had welts on chin and cheeks, my upper lip was swollen and protruding and my nose had doubled in size. This morning the itching and bumps were improved but my eyes are swollen almost shut and other symptoms from night before still exist.
