2020-05-07 01:50:10
My husband has a severe upper lip swelling. No puss. No redness. Few months back he had severe swelling on both the eyes as well. It was gone in few days. Dont know what is wrong. Its been more than 24 hours since the upper lip swelling . Not taking any medicine. Going to the doctor is not possible due to lockdown. Please advise any medicine so that we can get it from the medical store. Thanks a lot!

Hello Since there is upper lip swelling and history of some swelling eye few months back possibility of angioedema that is swelling due to allergy is very high May be related to food or other medicine chemicals at time consumption of meats etc Temporarily you can use levocetrizine 5mg hs. If not decreasing need evaluation.
