What Causes Muscle Tightness In Arms After An Allergic Reaction?
was treated for an allergic reaction to a yellowjacket sting this morning, was given 25 Benadryl during EMS service, and pregnazone before I left ER, now experiencing muscle tightness, almost like carpal tunnel in both arms....sting originated in right calf. What could cause that?
The muscle tightness in arms after an allergic reaction can be due to decreased fluid intake or an electrolyte disturbance. Taking fluid rich in electrolytes like Gatorade can help in improvement of symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
