This is all I know to do.
If it's itching/burning or (in an extreme case) you notice you're having trouble breathing, I might consider a call. I think friends of mine with the same problem use cornstarch and rubbing alcohol to ease the discomfort, but benadryl is probably best.
Hope it goes down quickly!
