Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
Bell's
palsy leads to
paralysis of
facial muscles on one half of face. This includes inability to close one eye, facial asymmetry, inability to blow out cheek on one side, etc.
So, your symptoms are not like Bell's palsy.
If you can upload a picture of face swelling, it would be helpful.
Please get back if you require any additional information.
Best wishes,
