A member asked:
The left side of my face right by my ear is swelling and it feels like i've been blowing up balloons all day what could this be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Swelling face: This sounds like either an allergic reaction or a tooth abscess. If it is worsening this is nothing to wait on . You may need to be seen urgently.
