Hello,

The symptoms can be related to an allergic reaction. I suggest using antihistamines such as Benadryl three times a day for relieve. I also suggest using cold compresses for local application. If the symptoms continue, I recommend to see your general doctor for a physical examination.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
