What Causes Swelling Around Lips, Eyelids, Wrists And Under Breasts?

I have swelling of the eyelids, itchy tongue and ear, swelling around my lips including my lips, hives on my wrists and on palms, feet, armpits, abdomen, between my legs, on my genitals, and under my breasts as well as on the under side of my breasts themselves. No past history of allergies to anything except for Sulfa. This has continued for over 3 months, I take an antihistamine daily, on schedule to relieve hives, but one hour late and I m covered in hives.

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain the symptoms seems to be due to severe allergic reaction to something that you are continuously exposed to and is causing severe allergic reaction and there is a possibility that you may be allergic to a multiple number of things..
You should consult an Allergist and get evaluated and blood investigations to rule out allergics like Patch test, RAST test and food challenge test has to be done to rule out the exact cause of the allergic reaction as well complete blood picture and a complete hormonal profile and other investigations will be advised to rule out the causes of the symptoms and treatment can be planned accordingly..
In case if it is an allergic reaction he/she will start an Immunotherapy to reduce the severity of symptoms as well as improve the present condition..
Preventing exposure to allergen will further help..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
