HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, this is not because of the narco medicine, but this more seems hypersensitivity reaction, generally this goes away without any medicine as the effect of causative factor reduces, if it does happens again then the underlying cause of this has to be found out, right now for the symptomatic relief you can have the following medicine.
1) Livocetrizine 10 mg three times in day
No need to worry about this take care and have nice day.
