How Can Swollen And Painful Rashes On The Cheeks Be Treated?

I have sudden swollen big rash on my two cheeks. I don t know what to do, it has been almost a week. How can I get rid of it immediately as it is very visible and it hurts, getting bigger from under eyes to chin now. I rub them with Desinade, Cortizone 20, Benedryl pills and ice pack at night to rellieve pain. I don t know where I got it. I need immediate cure as I have a court problem with my Condo residence. Please help me. Lenore.
