Suggest Remedy For Swollen Lips In Children
I have a two year old daughter who came home from the nanny today with a really swollen lower lip. She is not able to nurse b/c the lip seems really sore, I am afraid it might be an allergic reaction(?) she had a severe allergic reaction that required an ER visit...though she tested negative for any allergies to tree nuts of all kinds.

Hi... just read through your question. This could be a starting stage of a allergic reaction. I suggest you take her to the nearest Emergency Room as soon as possible. I am suggesting this keeping in mind her previous history of allergic reaction. I suggest you keep an injection of epinephrine at home always and also learn when and how to administer it in case of an emergency.
