Swelling to left side of face why ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
May be Parotitis: Swelling on one side, if not recently injured, can be due to infection of parotid glands, or bell's palsey, or a dental problem. If it does not resolve with warm compresses over several hours, medical evaluation should be sought.
