Question Swollen Face

The right side of my face has been swollen for at least a year now. I went to the doc awhile back and he said it was nothing.

It has grown since I have last seen him. I am going to see him again next week, but was wondering if anyone has a clue what this is.

I dont have any pain, except occasionally in front of my ear. Eating certain foods doesn't change the size or anything.

I have noticed that my right eye lid has been drooping more that my other eye.

Anyone have a clue??

Re: Swollen Face

These sound like some of the symptoms of Bell's Palsy...which is a neurological condition but can have a number of different causes.
