Hello,
I can understand your concern. The symptoms you have described indicate that you have
allergy to some substance. It might be something else that you have had during dinner or from the environment that may have caused the reaction. Sometimes it also happens that body develops allergy to a substance that you have been safely exposed to before.
I advise you to take antihistamine such as Levocetrizine 5 mg (Levocet) or
Loratidine 10 mg (Lorfast) once a day for about 5-7 days. If it is an
allergic reaction, it should come under control with this medication.
In addition, if you develop this reaction repeatedly in future, it is necessary to find out what substance is acting as allergen to you and then avoid exposure to it. In that case, you should go for a
blood test for allergy.
However, if the reaction does not come under control or increases in severity, you should visit a
dentist or physician to get the lip examined physically and further investigations and treatment.
I hope this answer helps you. Thank you for choosing HealthcareMagic. I wish you feel better soon.
Best,
Dr. Viraj Shah
