Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Swelling over face as described by you seems to be parotitis which can be post viral or some local pathology.
You should visit to a doctor for examination and treatment.
Pain killers with serratiopeptidase can be taken.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
