Brief Answer:
Seems like an allergic reaction.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thank you for using Healthcaremagic to post your health query.
I read it carefully and understand your concern your concern.

What you are describing seems like an allergic reaction.

See if you can notice anything that you are exposed that might cause this.
If you are not able to avoid the trigger then you can do the allergy tests and so find out which is the cause.

Meanwhile, if the problem lasts more you may take an antihistamine like Loratadine 10mg, Benadryl or other.

Hope this is helpful.
Let me know if you have other questions or concerns.

Regards,
Dr.Papaqako
