Brief Answer:
It is may be serious side effect and you must stop the treatment.

Detailed Answer:
Hello and thank you for asking!
It you do not have taken any other tablet during these days except from naturethyroid than it may be a side effect of it. It suggests of an allergic reaction that is very rare but you must stop the tablets and consult an allergologist. After excluding other probable allergic causes we can say that it is from the naturethyroid.
So you must stop the treatment and consult an allergologist.
Hope the information is helpful and do not hesitate for further follow up questions.
Kind regards,
