What Causes Swollen Lips While Having Itchiness Of Shoulder And Knees Due To Hives?
I have a reaction to somethng that caused my lips to swell over a month ago. My docotor thought it was Lisinopril so I changed meds. But I have had it several times since. also, i have had hives and itching on my shoulders, and back and right behind my knees. this occurs at different times of the day or when i awake in the morning. I am seeing an allergy specialist. i completed the food tests. he said i was 2++ for onions, celery and oranges. Now i also have sinus problems due to the pollen, Could this be a Histamine overload causing all of this?
