Found Swollen, Itchy, Red Patches All Over The Face. Painful. No History Of Eczema Or Skin Problem. Allergic Reaction?

Hello, I woke up two days ago with a very hot face, and have red patches all over my face but especially on my cheeks. It can be a little itchy and when I put savolon or aloe vera gel on it too cool it, it was very stingy and painful. My cheeks are also a little swollen. I have no history of exzema or serious skin problems so I was thinking could it be an allergic reaction? Thank You, Becca x
