What kind were you taking?
That is probably why they said to take an antihistamine. The ears can get fluid collected in them and cause pain. It takes a few days of the antihistamine to make it go away.Do you also have a sore throat and/or fever? Any pus in the throat?
My allergist told me to try Claritin tabs instead of gel caps but I took one after having my allergy shot and I broke out in hives again. Now all the pollen is out and my eyes are really itchy and red and I have a hard time seeing at work. I tried taking Atarax last night to see if that would help more than Benadryl. Big mistake since I woke up broke out in bad hives. I had to wait to get home to take benadryl since I am not 100% certain that Benadryl does not give me hives.
Hello,
I recently noticed a small lump under my foreskin, right at the base of the glans. It doesn't cause any pain, and can be moved a bit, and it's appearance leads me to think it's a pimple or cyst deep in the foreskin.
A couple days after it appeared my real problem started. I noticed that the foreskin had swollen slightly over the top side of the glans shortly after I masturbated.
It will eventually go away but usually takes time. For the meantime, you may take any antihistamine and check if your symptoms will be relieved. You should avoid scratching the area as well to prevent breaks in the skin and possible introduction of bacteria.
Take care.
Here she thought she had done the right thing by taking an antihistamine and it had the exact reverse effect. We have no idea what started this whole process and now treating it is a conundrum. She is presently waiting to get an appointment from an allergist but by the time that happens, the hives should be gone. She is trying benadryl cream (topical) and that seems to be working to some extent on the spots on her arms. With any luck, it will help the rest go away too.
Cold accumulates for 2-3 months and then headache starts. Now days I also get pain back of my head, ears or some time below ears and jaws back side.
Can anyone guide me about treatment for such sinus issues. Is any regular tablet or solution I can take avoid regular problem of sinus headache.
Does inhaling steam or message with hot water will reduce my trouble? I do get some relief with hot plastic bag message.
Anti-itch drugs, often antihistamine, may reduce the itch during a flare up of eczema, and the reduced scratching in turn reduces damage and irritation to the skin.
For mild-moderate eczema a weak steroid may be used (e.g. hydrocortisone or desonide), whilst more severe cases require a higher-potency steroid (e.g. clobetasol propionate, fluocinonide).
Eczema can be exacerbated by dryness of the skin. Moisturizing is one of the most important self-care treatments for sufferers of eczema.
Benadryl (diphenhydramine) is an antihistamine and is used to treat sneezing, runny nose, itching and other allergies. So, as mentioned above it dries out the secretions and hence is not recommended in lung disorders.
Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
Apply calamine lotion at the site of the lesions and see if it helps. You could take some oral antihistamine medications like cetrizine or loratadine. You need to maintain a good personal hygiene .

) and now recently, it hit again with inside of eyelids very red, and I started to have some pain too. So I became concerned. The pain is intermittent, but if it started to be continuous it would quickly become an issue!
It feels a little like eye strain- like a pulled muscle type of feeling, uncomfortable and sore on the eye intermittently, and there is some soreness inside the lids and dryness. Noticeable strain looking up and down, left right... it pulls and feels sore.
