Swelling on both sides of the face.
Hi
I have a problem, like both sides of my face swelling near by ear and very painful, it came for me three times intermittently three months gap. I thought it was related to skin and I counsulted many dermatologists in hyderabad. They prescribed me some antibiotics and Isotritionion tablets etc. But they did not help to cure this. I don't know what is my problem and which doctor I need to counsult.
This swelling will last for one to two months.
Kindly help me to know what is this problem and whom I need to consult.
