I got sting by some insect on my middle finger has been swollen and it's been very painful. I spoke with my doctor she recommend Benadryl until I see her tomorrow. Should I wait and go to my appointment or go to the emergence? I've been taking 4 children's WAL-DRYL since yesterday but, it still hurting.
benadryl lowers the histamine induced inflammation. some other medications that sometimes work are aspirin like drugs. putting an ice cube directly onto the area of inflammation is often helpful also
