That's good. The ibuprofen is an anti-inflammatory and would help with the swelling if its was due to trauma and manipulation, etc.
It's still swollen but much better then it was on Friday. I don't think it was an allergic reaction because benadryl didn't really help at all. And I'm def not allergic to latex. I've just been taking ibuprofen and antibiotix (just in case). I did ice the first 24hrs then warm soaks since then. I think it was just swollen from all the anesthetic and manipulation. Anyway...it seems to be getting better.
If its indeed an allergic reaction (sometimes called angioedema of the lip), then taking benadryl will help with calming down the inflammatory response to whatever irritant caused it. Are you allergic to latex? Hows the swelling now? Has it gone down? After a few days of benadryl, it should be significantly better.
