What Causes Swelling In Forehead And Around The Face?
Hi, I have swelling in my forehead, all around my eyes, & my cheeks are progressively getting swollen too. It started two days ago & it just keeps getting worse. I have never had allergies to anything, & I haven t used any new products or eaten anything new. Any ideas on what could be wrong with me?

Hello,
I have studied your case, And i can suggest you that following can be causes of swelling in the face.
1.High BP
2.Poor functioning kidney
3. Low thyroid function
So i would suggest you to meet a physcian and get your blood pressure check up, along with hormones level,blood urea and creatinine level. If any of these tests are abnormal than you can start treatment accordingly.
I hope these steps will help you. Let me know if there is ny other followup questions.
Thanks
