Dr. John Goldman answered

Systemic evaluation: You need an evaluation for a systemic problem, The hives can be an allergic reaction to the antibiotics or it may be part of a systemic illness. An allergist can help see if the hives fit into the other symptoms while a rheumatologist can evaluate the whole syndrome including the swelling in the hands/feet.
