Angioedema and Hives
I have had 5 episodes of swelling of lips in last 55 days reoccurring within 10-15 days, My skin has become highly sensitive with hives and rashes coming due to pressure. There is no specific cause or food that leads to swelling of lips, I have been taking anti histamine (after consultation)for a month but not much improvement has been observed, how long would it take to get better.

I advise you to consult a dermatologist online or in person, share clear pictures, and get a personalized treatment plan. Only after proper evaluation can the right medicines (creams/tablets) be prescribed.”
