What Causes Painful Hives Post Shots?

I went to doctor with hives and was given a shot and 7 days of medicine. All medicine has been taken. Now the area under my left armpit has a burning pain like someone has a hot knife under your arm and I have a headache. I am very tired and have had to take naps this is not like me. The hives have came back and I took some allergy medicine and they went away. I just had a EKG done and everything was fine. Blood pressure was fine and blood sugar. This is now going on two weeks.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern and from the history given here I could say that this could be hypersensitive reaction and just single agent would be enough to treat this and the option is "Tab Levocetrizine 10 mg three times in day" you need to take this medicine little more time even after the subside of hives, have a nice day.
I find this answer helpful
