Hi.
As per your case history you are having angioedema.
My treatment advice is -
1. Avoid fast food and food with artificial colors for 6 weeks.
2. Take an antihistamine medication like levocetrizine twice daily for 7-10 days.
3. Don't take any medication without consulting a doctor as it may worsen the condition.
4. Other treatment options are oral antibiotics, oral steroid taken only after consulting a dermatologist.

Thanks.
