A member asked:
I've had swollen, red, stinging hands for the last 36 hrs. i haven't changed my diet or soap etc. benadryl (diphenhydramine) didn't help. will it go away on its own?

Need to be checked: You don't know what it is or what is causing it, and it is impossible to say weather it is an allergic reaction or something else without looking at it, if there is no improvement whatsoever i suggest you see your doctor.
