Do Swollen Eyelid And Painful Jaw Indicate Conjunctivitis?

Hi the inner corner of my right eye was slightly sore friday, yesterday, Sunday, the eyelid and lower lid were slightly swollen. When I woke this morning I could not open my eye as it was stuck shut and my right cheek was swollen. I also have pain along my lower right jaw. Is this conjunctivitus?
