swollen eyes hives

I have swollen eyelids that come and go, almost like hives, but rarely itch. Can be one or several. On omnicef for sinus infection, but doctor doesn't think this is causing it. 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.

The symptoms included... Hives, itching,swelling of the throat, inability to swollow properly,swollen eyes,and a swollen itchy penis. The same symptoms have occurred each time since - less severe. It is very concerning and puzzling. He also becomes quite unwell when stung by anything - ticks,ants,bees,wasps..

Hives may be associated with autoimmune thyroid disease. Would have thyroid retested including thyroid antibodies to see what is happening now. Hyperthyroidism may be recurring given the symptoms, so important to be tested.

now if I put the bells palsy, itchyness of my body, swollen lips, constant redness of my eyes and hives within the past 2yrs would this be a concern of MS??? I heard that the herpes virus is the cause of bells palsy but can herpes cause all of this?? I do get cold sores and I dont have genitals herpes.

For example, i used a face wash with benzoyl peroxide for 5 months with no problems and the one morning i woke up and my eyes were swollen with hives. Now anytime i use anything on my face with that ingredient i get hives around my eyes. A few days ago I washed my hair with head and shoulders ( a shampoo i randomly use all the time) and woke up the next morning once again with hives around my eyes.

Hello, This looks like an allergic reaction to the drug and can be hives. The standard treatment of hives is oral antihistaminics and topical steroids. Oral antihistaminics relieve itching and you can get them over the counter but some of them may cause drowsiness, hence it should be taken under a medical guidance. Topical steroids and oral steroids are available by prescription from a dermatologist.

ve got an upcoming appointment with the allergist, but I really believe something else is going on (I also frequently develop hives around the puffy eyes).Most mornings I wake up with my eyes almost swollen shut. I now have a patch of eczema under one eye. I tried special products, control creams, cortisone (in small amounts-I have to be careful since it is around my eye), vaseline...the list goes on. If anyone has any ideas, I'd welcome them!

Have my eyes swollen shut, itchy, painful hives all over, and being ashamed to go out in public- or to be tired and pretty much mentally useless all day. I just don't know what to do to curb my hives. And what are the effects of taking benadryl all day, every day? HELP! ...I am misrable...

I have used various anti-histimines and nasal steroid sprays with some success. However, my biggest problem now is having had very puffy eyes for the last week, no redness or itchiness, just swollen eyelids. I have seen 2 doctors, who have given me eye drops and Loratadine and then Fexofenadine, but nothing is helping. I'm getting to the end of my tether, please help!

My most recent allergic reaction (2 weeks ago) - Felt fine all morning, did not eat anything before reaction occurred - Sat in an outdoor area, began to develop burning ears, inner ear pain, swelling eyes, hives on neck, inner arm, armpits, back of legs (none of which were itchy) - No feelings of sickness, no difficulty in breathing etc, merely external symptoms - Blood tested for outdoor allergens (all negative) HOWEVER IgE at 800 instead of normal 100 2.

m allergic to something in my environment. The hives/swollen glands seems to happen most when I have been laying on my couch. I do have two dogs that sometimes lay on my sofas but this did not start until a few years ago and I have not had pet allergies before. Can allergies develop later in life? My concern is, if this is not allergies, what is it?

and - as of 1 October - have been covered with hives on both arms and on both eyes (have been on 5 doses of prednisone - clears it up while on the drug but comes right back 2 days later). My allergist/immunologist ran a bunch of labs because he feels the hives are not an allergic reaction but are a histamine "leak" from weakened blood vessels.

I do have Hashimotos and I’m extremely cold sensitive, chronic fatigue, massive migraines, very recent rapid weight gain (haven’t changed diet or exercise), rash/hives about once a month on face and extremities, wake up with eyes almost swollen shut. I’m a mom of 4 and work 50 hrs a week and love what I do however I’ve never felt this strange. I can’t really even explain all the symptoms. Wondering if anyone can help.

That time I had to call my friend to come and take me to the ER because my husband was already gone for work and my eyes were swollen shut-as well as airway swelling. Prior to this I had an occurence of "ideopathic hives" in 2004. At that time a cause was never determined. I just feel certain that it's all related to my thyroid problem.

Then I break out in hives that cover my entire body and my lips, ears, hands, feet and forehead get very swollen. A few a months ago it got so bad, my whole body was completely covered in hives and I was swollen from head to toe. I started feeling weak and it was hard to breath, my pulse was very weak and I felt very cold It felt like I was dieing so I ended up passing out. My husband called 911 and they gave me a shot and took me to the hospital.

50 days later, on December 24, I had hives and angioedema (lips and eyes). I went to see my dermatologist. She diagnosed me with urticaria. She gave me betamethasone and loratadine. The same day, both the hives and the angioedema went away and did not come back. A few days later, on December 29, I had a high fever (102°F / 39°C) and diarrhea. I went to the emergency room, they made an ecography on my belly and a complete blood count.

I even wake up with a swollen upper or lower lip and swollen eyes. This is so frustrating. The hives appear randomly and I have been to the ER twice and Urgent care . I am on prednisone 50 mg for 5 days and I am still getting hives at night. Benadryl helps but it makes me so sleepy I can't take it because it makes work difficult. Loratadine caused expiratory wheezing and congestion. I am worried what will happen when the prednisone runs out.

I just wanted to note that noe my whole face is swollen my eyes are almost swollen shut! I'm getting ready to go to the clinic... This is scary.

About two weeks after that I started to get hives. Now instead of hives I get like red marks on my skin. The hives literally itch and burn so bad. Zyrtec helps. The hives/welts/marks come and within minutes they are gone. This has been happening for two months now. Would hiv rash do this? I have been to both my doctor and dermatologist who have both said it is chronic hives. Could it really be chronic hives or does this sound like std? Please help. I'm scared.

I have had a recent bout with hives. This is my first reaction to hives lasting more than a few days. I was worried about it because I had a one night stand in Europe about 6 wks ago. The condom broke and afterward I developed a UTI. (The symptoms were very mild for the UTI so I didn't go to the dr. till about a week after my trip. That means I could have had the UTI for at least a few days before it got treated.) I also a yeast infection and took generic diflucan for this.

But they love to attack my butt and thys.... Sometimes I even have swollen eyes, ears and lips..... I try to stay away from dogs and cats..... But these critters are every were. And most of my friends have them. So I prevent my self from going in there houses. HELP!!!!!! my allergies last for 2months straight.. Every time they come... There is no cure for me, I've tried everything... Why is there no medicine for HIVES??? This is stressing me out.

This was the first occurrence of many facial swelling issues, some that looked like hives (red bumps), but most just extreme swelling of one or both eyes, lips, and even swollen areas on my forehead and cheeks at times. One lip swelling incident was so extreme that I thought my skin would split. My family said I looked like a Who from Who-ville. (Have mercy!) As the next month went by the condition progressed.

My symptoms were weight gain, inflammation, dry eyes, itching during exercise, asthma, swollen hands and ankles, headaches and itchy mouth. I think they vary quite a bit from person to person. I also get extreme hunger pains when I start to eat something I am allergic to if I start with an empty stomach.

ve got an upcoming appointment with the allergist, but I really believe something else is going on (I also frequently develop hives around the puffy eyes).Most mornings I wake up with my eyes almost swollen shut. I now have a patch of eczema under one eye. I tried special products, control creams, cortisone (in small amounts-I have to be careful since it is around my eye), vaseline...the list goes on. If anyone has any ideas, I'd welcome them!

The first day, I woke up and my right eye and my left ear was red swollen with little bumps at the back. On the second day, both my eyes and ears were swollen and itchy. Now on the third day, I woke up my eyes were swollen but after taking reactine, the redness went down but the skin under my eyes next the bridge of my nose is swollen and puffy, as well as my ears. My skin all over my face is now rough and a little bumpy and itchiness. Also dryness around my mouth.

t even touch anything that has been washed with Ultra Concetrate with breaking out into hives on only my eyes. I only use Free and Clear everything. I broke out recently and think it is due to concentrated Free and Clear Fabric Softner, who knew! It is the strangest thing. Also, Avon brand Eye Cream Renew seems to take the hives down on my eyes for some strange reason. I recommended this also to someone else with a recent problem with bad eczema and it worked. Good luck!

After throwing up my lips, toungue and throat started to itch and swell up. My eyes became extremely swollen and itchy too. I took an antihistamine and my asthma pump and I was fine. After that experience with the apple, the exact same reaction started to happen after eating all fruit and most veg (only raw veg so I can have most cooked veg like brocolli, carrots etc). I then discovered recently that I’m also allergic to the majority of raw nuts.

I'm 12 weeks pregnant, got stung above my right ankle. Within an hour I was covered head to toe in a itchy hive rash (this has never happened before). My glands hurt, my feet are swollen. I called my OB, she said since it's been over an hour, and I'm breathing fine, I can take 2 benedryl and relax...
