Suggest Treatment For Swelling On Lip

I woke at 5:30 a.m. this morning with bites on my upper left leg. Looked like mosquito bites. At 7:45 a.m. my upper right side of my lip was swollen. The bites now seem to be gone but the lip is still swollen. Only thing I did different this morning was used Lime away on my shower curtain. I do not feel my normal self but not bad. Checked my tongue and it came out straight. So no stroke. Any suggestions?
