I was painting w/o goggels, and rubbed paint into one. It is swollen and I have hives. Took benadryl, citrizine, prednisolone. Wait or go to Dr? I also over exposed my right arm to chlorine bleach about 2 gallons, while cleaning. I have burns, I didn't wear gloves. Mainly problem is swollen eye and hives.

Hi, thanks for using healthcare magic

It would be best to visit the doctor for assessment to make sure that there is no significant damage to the eye.

The benadryl and prednisolone would with any allergic response and reduce inflammation but you would need additional medication if there is trauma due to the presence of the chemical in your eye.

I hope this helps
