Nature of Reaction?: Please describe what exactly has happened?... as having an "allergic reaction" is quite ambiguous and does not tell me the nature of your reaction and whether to recommend going to an ER(if it is something serious). Send details or go to an ER but only if you have any difficulty with breathing or have a generalized skin rash or whelps(urticaria). Good luck.
