One side of my face feels heavy.I was having very bad headaches in my right temple. Eye irritation and pressure behind my right eye. The area around my eye and also my cheek was inflamed. I went to an allergy specialist. She gave me enough prednisone and antibiotics for a sinus infection even though she didnt see one but she gave me it just in case if the infection spread up behind my eye. The medication only lasted a week. After the medication the pressure was gone and my eye felt better. But my cheek felt and still feels heavier than it did before. When I get acne on that side of my face it is very sensitive and swollen. Is this all just inflammation or what? Id like to mention that my right tonsil is swollen too.What could this be and what doctor should I go to?
Hi, Your headache is a tension type of headache, and it is not migraine at all for what you have taken treatment and get relieved. Now, acne is an inflammatory lesion with blackheads or comedones mostly limited to face. The skin becomes warm, sore to touch, slightly shiny and heavy feeling at the site any inflammation. You are also having swollen tonsils might be infective or non-infective. You will require antibiotics (quinolones or accolades group preferred) both oral and topical forms with anti-inflammatory and analgesics. You must consult your dermatologist for further advise getting rid of acne. Thanks
