Suggest Treatment For Superior Mesenteric Artery

Our daughter has been diagnosed with SMA type 1. Recently her face has started to swell mainly around her eyes, no matter how much we turn her it does not shift. We have noticed mild swelling in rest of body as well, but tends to not last. The swelling in her face has been there for over a week now.

What could be the reason for this.
