What Causes Itchy Spots On Thighs And Buttocks After Taking Benedryl?

Today over the course do several hours my lower lip has swollen up. It started on the left with a little swelling, and has spread across most of the bottom lip- I do not think I have ingested anything i am allergic to. The wind has been really bad today (we live in Las Vegas) and lots of people are battling allergies, so I took a benedryl a few hours ago. It has only gotten worse since. In addition, my scalp has been really itchy since yesterday, and I have a few itchy spots on my thighs and one on my buttocks. My ears feel a little itchy and so does my throat so it feels like allergies, but why would my lip swell up with seasonal allergies? This is really strange! Any thoughts?

Hi,
It seems that there might be having generalized allergic reaction to some allergen, either internal or external.
Try to find out allergen.
This can be due to dust, pollen, dumpy atmosphere, wearing some clothes, duo or some cosmetic like talc, spray or shampoo.
Along with Benadryl or Cetrizine you might require some antibiotic medicine along with.
Consult your doctor and get examined.
Ok and take care.
