What Causes Bumps On The Forehead And Puffiness On The Face?

I was eating couple of vegetables, fruits and dry fruit in a bowl and after eating 2/3rd of it, I start feeling bumps on my left side of forehead, little rigidity in my face, and again bumps on my right side of forehead, and little puffiness on my face. The vegetables I was eating were carrots, beats, mushrooms, avocados, asparagus, dry fruits like almonds, raisins, other fruits like cherry, blue berries, and small salad tomatoes. I don t know what is this , allergy or anything else, I took Benadryl 25 mg as for precaution from any allergies. Got anxious.

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, possibility of allergy to mushrooms is more likely.
Mushrooms are highly allergic because of high protein content.
So you have done right thing by taking benadryl.
Don't eat those vegetables more.
Wait for 1-2 hours for benadryl action.
Your swelling will mostly subside.
Don't panic or be anxious. You will be alright.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
I find this answer helpful
