What Causes Swelling Around Nose And Eyes?
My six year old son is swollen around his nose and eyes. He s had headaches for the last couple days. His nose is a bit runny. He s very miserable. Is it more likely a sinus infection or could he have possibly stuck something up his nose? What do I do??

Hello. I just read through your question.
the most common diagnosis in this scenario is a harmless viral illness. However, if the symptoms last longer than 7 days, it is possible that a bacterial infection could be going on. Though the possibility of a foreign object in the nose, is real, its presence can lead to infection. In any case, I recommend consulting with your doctor so the correct diagnosis can be made and appropriate treatment plan implemented
