To ask if the tips of your fingers have ever swollen up!?

I got very stressed earlier on and the tips of mg fingers on both hands really blew up and were painful to touch. My hands also went quite red and my ears and scalp got hot and itchy, but it was the finger tips that properly freaked me out...they're still not 100% better!

I started an antibiotic this morning that I have taken many times before (macrobid for UTI), but never together with metronidazole which I am also currently taking for something else...so im wondering if it could be an allergic reaction or if this is some kind of bizarre stress reaction that happens to some people!? Google is giving me nothing so I'd be grateful for your thoughts!

Just spoke to my GP...he said it wouldn't be an antibiotic side effect...so wtf!? Has anyone ever had a similar stress response!?
