Brief Answer:
Angiodema, take antihistaminic
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to ask a doctor service
I have gone through your query and it seems to be angioedema.
It is an allergic reaction which can occur due to multiple causes like drugs and food allergies, infection, thyroid disorder, autoimmune and in many cases occurs without a cause.
I would recommend you to take antihistaminic like tablet cetrizine 10 mg twice daily for 5-7 days.
This should improve your condition.
