I had some leaves for dinner last night and when I woke up this morning, my face was completely swollen and red. So, besides Benadryl, is there anything you can recommend (a natural option would be much more appreciated) to calm the whole thing down?! Thank you so much!Tuesday, January 3, 2012
Allergy Reaction From Dandelion Greens?
I had some leaves for dinner last night and when I woke up this morning, my face was completely swollen and red. So, besides Benadryl, is there anything you can recommend (a natural option would be much more appreciated) to calm the whole thing down?! Thank you so much!

Shergill - Hi Carolina,
ReplyDeleteNatural options are for when disease processes are mild. Yours is a serious reaction with a potential to cause your death or serious irreversible damage. Natural Honey is not going to help. I suggest you continue to take the benadryl every eight hourly until all the redness disappears. If it does not get better see your GP. He may choose to give you a steroid too eg. Prednisolone or Prednisone or Dexamethasone.
Bathing Natural springs (containing small amounts of sulphur), bathing is water from the Dead Sea etc have been said to help these conditions. However, I will NOT recommend any of these natural remedies.
