Ok...I think I might have the hives. My eyelids are swolen, my hands are swolen, I have all this acne like stuff on my forehead. I don't feel sick, but my fingers will barely straighten. Please tell me. And if you think I have something else, please tell me too. But only serious answers on this one. And do you know any doctors that will work on Thanksgiving?

The acne I said, was bigger than normal acne.
How much time do I have, before it strikes my throat? should I call 911?

Ok, did this start rather suddenly, does it itch? Have you had contact with something new?...soap, lotion, etc. sounds like an allergic reaction. If your mouth or throat tingle or throat feels tight...GO TO THE ER. If this is mild and does not progress tonite, you could try taking a Benadryl 25mg. tablet...can buy over the counter at Walmart or pharmacy. Is there a walk in clinic in your town? If not, call your doc ( there will be someonr taking call for the holiday) and see if he/she wants you to go to the ER or if there is an office or clinic you can go to. Some hospitals have an Urgent Care Center in connection with the ER. This would be an appropriate place to go. You must have had skin contact with something you are allergic to. Hope you do well.

Hives are usually larger than acne size. I would go to the emergency room ASAP!!!!!!!!!! Even if it is hives you may have an allergic reaction to something which means you need a shot. If the hives continue to spread it could close off your throat and you wont be able to breath. EMERGENCY ROOM NOW!
