Brief Answer:
Probably an allergy. Upload an image for review.

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for this query.

I have reviewed the information and this is very suggestive of a possible allergic reaction or an ongoing viral infection in the household.There should be something new in the environment that is responsible for this. Kindly upload an image as well for further review. For now, take Tylenol and Benadryl for relief while we pinpoint the cause and address fully.

I do promise to get back to you with more insights and helpful recommendations as soon as the requested information gets here.
