A member asked:
Forearms,neck and face get red and warm to the touch, every day. take benadryl (diphenhydramine) to keep calm, but it came from nowhere, week 5, no known allergy, why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not allergy: These are not typical allergy symptoms. You need to consult an allergist to find out if you have a mast cell disorder since Benadryl (diphenhydramine) seems to help.
