Hi
You seem to have developed angioedema .
Such a sudden swelling of the face needs to be managed with proper steroids and anti histamines .
Such an allergic reaction can occur due to various causes like drug intake or any body infection or as a reaction to any food stuff.
You should immediately see a nearby doctor to evalutate the reason for the same and proper management.
