If I take benadryl with in a half hour they recede and almost disappear...3-4 hours later they return. Most intense neck/hairline,palms of hands,inner elbows abdomen where clothes touch skin. Gland at jawline and groin are swollen and sensitive to touch.

Hello! Welcome to HealthcareMagic!
I understand your concern. Your symptoms seem to be related to an allergic reaction.
I suggest you to:
1) Take antihistamines daily for a week.
2) Take prescribed corticosteroids.
3) Use calamine lotion locally.
4) Take cool showers.
Hope my answer was helpful. Thank you for the query.
Take care
