Foreign body may medicine like drugs, pollen, animal dander, dust and insect venom etc. The severity of allergies varies from person to person and can range from minor rash to anaphylaxis — a potentially life-threatening emergency. Advice1.     Apply cold fomentation of the swelled area every 4 hours2.     Levocetirizine (Tab Vozet) 5 mg – 1 tablet once daily for 5 days3.     Dexamethasone (Tab Dexona) 0.5 mg – 1 tablet twice daily for 5 days4.     Do not scratch too much as it will caused skin damage and infection5.     You can apply calamine lotion – three times daily – will provide soothing effectThanks </s>
