kind of in a tough place since my ophthalmologist is out for the weekend. i have an allergy to mosquito bites, nothing bad but they swell up to softball size. normally i take benadryl to calm the swelling down and we are good to go, but i read online that benadryl can increase intracranial pressure and basically counteract the diamox.

essentially, what would yall do? have you taken a low dose benadryl and been fine? should i just go to urgent care so they can take a quick look? i’m not too bothered by the bite but the swelling is worse than usual and it’s been a week so i’d love to do something for it lol
