What is Angioedema?
Angioedema is a medical condition characterized by rapid and localized swelling in the deeper layers of the skin and inner linings of various body areas. This swelling frequently occurs on the face, lips, tongue, throat, or genital organs. This happens when fluid accumulates in the deeper layers of the skin, and the blood vessels expand.
