Hi,thanks for query.Migraine can not lead to swelling.You may have associated sinus problem which can lead to swelling at times.Please look for fever and other symptoms suggestive of infection.You can take analgesic for pain if you have.Take steam inhalation as per need,Take light diet and avoid cold things.
wishing you good health.
