I was perfectly OK one day and the next day experienced extreme pain in all my joints. The joint pain followed a rash which was followed by watery diarrhea. Could Cycloporus be the cause?
Here's one for the books. My daughter has had a allergic reaction to an oral antihistamine she took for what appeared to be hives just below the right side of her derriere. This little bout of hives were taking their time going away and so she thought by taking the antihistamine it would help the process.
I was diagnosed with reactive arthritis at age of 17. Today I am 32, and some months ago I adopted a cat from the streets. When he started sleeping in my room, I had to triple my anti-inflammatory dose for some reason. As if that wasn't strange enough, after I took an antihistamine to control my allergy to the cat, when I woke up the next day my pain was DRASTICALLY increased. It was almost like I didn't take any anti-inflammatory at all.
How long can i use antihistamine for my daughter aged 7 months to relieve her of the eczema itching.
Take an antihistamine only for the itch. This sounds like chicken pox to me. It is difficult to think what else it might be.
not life or death type allergies, but sneezing, itchy nose and eyes, headaches. I take a one a day antihistamine to deal with it. .. but it says on the box not to take if pregnant. Im only 7 weeks, and have stopped taking them... but my allergies are horrible at the moment. All the sneezing is not helping with my morning sickness. During my last pregancey my symptoms actually went away but not this time... my question is can i take my antihistamine?
You can apply some calamine lotion at the rash as it will help in soothing the skin. You can take some OTC oral antihistamine medications like Benadryl or Claritin and see if it helps.
For mild-moderate symptoms a weak steroid may be used, whilst more severe cases require a higher-potency steroid.But they are available under prescription and should be taken only after consulting a dermatologist. Symptoms can be exacerbated by dryness of the skin.
We are currently traveling, since around 6 days ago my wife suddenly had a allergic reaction to something causing her to break out in red spots (without bumps) on her arm joints, knee caps, foot and hands which itches and swells. She has been taking claritan D and benedryl but that helps only a little. Yesterday she went to the ER and they gave her an IV with an antihistamine and anti inflammatory corticosteroid with 2 days worth of the same in pill form.
What kind were you taking?
There are no growths, lesions or bumps. There is no pain or swelling in the fingers themselves or joints. It normally only affects one web of the fingers and sometime affects both hands. It last only a day or two and happens several times a month. There are no other symptoms. I do own birds, I am not sure of any relation to this but they are carried one the hands often but the nails do not penetrate the skin.
I don't have any swelling in my joints. The pain in all joints started about 7/05/08. Ninety five percent of the time it's when I am sleeping. I can't hardly turn over is is so painful. Almost makes me cry. Also if I sit too long. Very difficult to stand up walk the first 10-15 steps. The pain subsides drastically but stiffness is still there. I am recovering from acohol abuse. The pain started the first week into inpatient.
Before omincef had a sulfer type med that caused swelling in joints, sick stomach, rash, fever. Have been on Omicef 5 days. Started having strange raised bumps for three days that come and go. Will say that two weeks ago had actual hives around eyes and think it was caused from eye cream. Any ideas as to what is going on? Today, had to leave work. Eyes burned and itched and lids swelled. I know that I had just put contact eye drops in.
Hi, my dermatologist has prescribed me a antihistamine for my itching and wants me to use it for 4-6 weeks. The med is called hydroxzine. I am concerned because i never heard of anyone using antihistamine for that long. Will this severly affect my liver? Please help!
Veramyst™ (fluticasone furoate) is a nasal inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) and, strictly speaking, not an antihistamine. As an anti-inflammatory medicine, however, has the potential to reduce histamine mediated inflammation, in a non-specific fashion. That it is not an antihistamine is evident by the very many studies of combination therapy, the combination of fluticasone with an histamine 2 (H2) blocker non-sedating antihistamine.
Ever since, I would get a few clustered around the joints on that side on both fingers which stay for only about a week before they go away and new ones come up. Sometimes they would itch a little or hurt when I apply pressure to them, and sometimes they don't even feel like they're there. At first I thought it was a bug bite but it has been re-occuring in the same specific areas and nowhere else.

Hi, I'm 25 and for a long time now, a few of my joints pop and crack often when moving, notably the shoulders, knees, wrists and ankles. These cracks don't hurt but are very annoying. I've started taking Cod Liver Oil supplements as I was told they help joint problems. Will this help?
The other joint crack is in my thumbs. Most notable my right thumb. I've been playing guitar for 12 years and I have until now put it down to some sort of RSI.
Has anyone else ever noticed that the joints which are most sore itch deep inside? I first noticed it in my hands, that a joint would seem itchy, but scratching didn't help. After a while I realized that it was a precursor to, or concurrent to my joints being inflamed. Just wondering how common this is, and if anyone knows the name for it. Also, out of curiosity, if you have experienced this, what autoimmune disease do you have.
