Please me?
Brief Answer:
Allergic dermatitis.cortisone cream and oral anti allergy tablets.
Detailed Answer:
Hello, thanks for writing to healthcare magic.I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, swollen face along with itching and burning probably suggest allergic cause.
Such kind of allergy can occur due to drugs,food allergy,change in soap,application of any cosmetics etc.
It can also be due to insect bite and pollen dermatitis.
It will be better if you send detail history and photograph of face if possible.
However ,to reduce your symptoms you can take anti allergy tablets like cetrizine and apply cortisone cream over face.Try avoiding exposure to sun and air as far as possible.Avoid outside food .
I hope this will help you.In case of any concern i will be happy to help you.
Thanks.
