My hand is all swollen and itchy
there is a giant hive right on my palm right below my thumb. Must have been a bug bite or something I touched tonight...either way it's no fun :( Hopefully the Benadryl I just took will help me out! Until then I think I'm going to have to sit on my right hand to keep from scratching it!

2. Try slathering it with warm oatmeal...
or use Aveeno if you have it...

Sorry you don't feel well... :hug:

3. I took the meds about 20 minutes ago and it seems to be working...
the swelling is going down and I'm not itching as much...now the next trick will be trying to fall asleep antihistamines tend to make me more jittery as opposed to sleepy
