General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

The symptoms of your husband seem to be related to an allergic reaction. I suggest using antihistamines such as Cetirizine 10 mg daily. I also suggest using Hydrocortisone cream for local application. Cool showers can be helpful.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
