Hi XXXXXX,
Welcome back to Healthcare Magic.
The swelling which is reaching the lip area indicates severity of infection and should be urgently treated with systemic antibiotics otherwise it may lead to complications.
Please urgently review to a local ENT doctor/physician who would prescribe antibiotics and the medicine to reduce the swelling eg. Serratiopeptidase.
I hope the advise will be helpful for you.
