A member asked:
I have welts on my neck after resting my head on a wool pillow. my upper lip is also swollen. i am taking over-the-counter antihistamines.?

Allergy?: Could be an allergy to wool, especially if antihistamines are helping. But hives and swelling could be due to a variety of things including food allergy, medication alley, insect sting, viral infection, or exposure related allergy like the wool. If not improving in a few days see doc
