Suggest Remedies For Swelling In The Wrist
Hi - I got stung by a bee yesterday and I have had allergic reactions in the past. I took a antihistamine right after and had pain and swelling at the site (left palm, in the thumb muscle area). The redness and swelling have moved down into my wrist below the site and it doesn t hurt much now. What I am concerned about now, is I am feeling achy all over like I have a fever. Do you think this is related to the sting or just a coincidence? Thank-you!

Dear sir /madam
Most likely you are experiencing the inflammatory or immune reaction to the sting.
And it goes down within a week.
You need not worry about it unless you have breathlessness or swelling in other parts of your body.
If it still bothers you take some NSAID.
