Arm swelling

Minami was itching her hand last night and I saw that her palm was a bit swollen with a central bump that looked like a mosquito bite. But this could be a an alergic reaction or a combination of the two. I applied some 1% Hydrocortisone cream at the time and she slept. When she woke up there were other swollen areas on her arms so I have her 1mL of Children's Benadryl to hopefully suppress any further swelling. She isn't complaining too much of itching or swelling which is a good sign. Last time she had similar symptoms she went to the ER because of sepsis resulting from the one of the swollen areas.
