Organic hair dye, allergic reaction, swollen lymph nodes. Taking benadryl. Treatment?
Patient: I had an allergic reaction to organic hair dye. My lymph nodes had swollen up at the base of my skull . I was able to make the swelling go down but there is an itching pain keeping me from sleeping. I am taking Benadryl to help with the reaction but what can I do to get rid of the itching pain and actually get some sleep?
