Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Swelling And Itching On The Left Hand?
I got stung twice on my left hand around 8 pm and now at midnight my arm pit is swollen on the left side and is sensitive when close to my side. I have a blotchy rash around the pubic area, waist, bra line, and armpits, with both hands itching and tingling. Could a second reaction be sever or life threatening.
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic. I can understand your concern. Yes, delayed reaction (second reaction) can be dengerous and more troublesome. You are also having involvement of groin, waist, chest, back, arm pits etc. So better to consult dermatologist and get done clinical examination of skin lesions. You will need oral antihistamine and anti inflammatory drugs. Local application of steroid cream is also beneficial. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
