Suggest Treatment For Hives And Swollen Glands On The Side Of Neck

Hi.
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain it seems that you have an allergic reaction to some unknown allergen and most common things that can cause allergic reaction are Animal Danders, Pollen, exposure to sun,heat, water or cold,certain foods like eggs ,fish,milk etc,Alcohol, certain medicines,insect bites etc although certain other things can also cause allergic reaction and you need to consult a specialist physician and get evaluated and get an allergic testing done..
In case of allergic reaction anti-histamines like allegra or claritin or benadryl has to be taken orally as well as injectable anti allergics can be given to you by the physician..
Steroids can be given orally as well as injectable..

You should take the condition seriously and get treated at the earliest..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards..
