no its real that i get this swelling on my forehead sometimes and it goes down after some days, it actually swells up a little by the first day its not itchy really but each time it starts swelling i notice it, and by the next day it becomes bigger

Hi,
Thanks for your response.
Avoid working continuously on computers for long durations. Have few minutes’ rest every hour while working, as this will relax the muscles.
I would suggest that you should get yourself examined medically at the time when the swelling is present.
Also, get an X-Ray PNS (Para Nasal Sinuses) done to rule out any sinus inflammation.
Try to get at least 6-8 hours sleep in the night. If due work you are not able to sleep at night, give rest to your body during daytime but I would suggest that night sleep is more beneficial.
I hope this answers your query. If you have any more queries, please mention.
Thanks.
