I'd call the ER or your doctor immediately.
Aleve is the brand name for naproxen sodium. People are not frequently allergic to this medication but it is not impossible.
The first thing you should do is take a 25mg Benadryl (diphenhydramine) to knock out the allergic response. Then make sure you avoid Aleve in the future and also be wary of other NSAID's like ibuprofen and aspirin just in case you are allergic to this "class" of medication.
