Right side face swelling and spreading to eye and lip?

Depends: If it is truly the left side to the midline of the face, it could be what is termed a dermatome, and possibly the beginnings of shingles. Just a guess, that would need examination and testing to fully diagnose.

Get evaluated: With your symptoms i would worry about an allergic reaction or an infection. You need an immediate evaluation because the treatment and seriousness depends on the diagnosis.
