They gave him a steroid shot to reduce the swelling and inflammation as well as a once a day pill meant to reduce the skin problems caused by allergies . He also had to get put on antibiotics because the skin irritation is probably infected . So now he has to take 2 thyroxine pills , 1 anitbiotic , 1 antihistamine pill , and an omega 3 - 6 - 9 pill with each meal .
