A member asked:
Does benadryl (diphenhydramine) help swelling caused by bigen dye for the face? my face swole up because of it can i take benadryl (diphenhydramine) to reduce swelling or penicillin.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
ER or dermatologist: Please go to an ER or dermatologist. Severe reactions are reported due to the dyes and chemicals in bigen. This is not something that I can give advice for online. Someone needs to see your face, your scalp and acess the entire situation. Secondary staph infections have been reported as well. Please see someone immediately to get an accurate assessment of the condition and treatment. Best to you.
