See a Dr: Acute swelling in the face/head of a baby requires a thorough exam by a pediatrician. The cause is usually allergic or infectious. Treatment will be determined by the Dr's findings on exam, tests, imaging or other data. Because your baby is so young it is important that you see the Dr today, in case there is a serious problem.
