    It is normal for shistidine to be swollen, red and itchy after being scratched by a sharp object [histamine is produced by histidine under the action of decarboxylase. Many tissues, especially mast cells of the lungs and intestinal mucosa, contain high amounts of histamine. Histamine is released when tissues are damaged or when inflammation and allergic reactions occur.

    Histamine has a strong vasodilatory effect, and can increase the permeability of the walls of capillaries and venules, and plasma leaks into the tissues, resulting in local tissue edema.
