Any new products in the house - soap, lotion, makeup, etc? Could be an allergic reaction. Also, are you taking any medications that may be having an interaction? When I was taking Topamax for migraines, my face would swell and go numb if I drank Twisted Tea!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/facial-swelling#post-2030943 Mon, 19 Jan 2015 12:49:26 +0000 mrsbubbletea 2030943@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jedeve: oh! Lol. Then I agree with previous answer. Haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/facial-swelling#post-2030924 Mon, 19 Jan 2015 12:36:28 +0000 jedeve 2030924@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@junebugsmama: I'm not pregnant! Part of why I'm confused. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/facial-swelling#post-2030910 Mon, 19 Jan 2015 12:31:26 +0000 mrsbubbletea 2030910@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You better check with the doc. When I got really swollen they said to call if it ever was on my face. Cause it could be a sign if preeclampsia. Of course, I never got swelling on my face but I did get severe preeclampsia suddenly on my due date! I wouldn't have known if I hadn't gone into labor. They may want to check your urine for protein and your blood pressure. They can change really fast! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/facial-swelling#post-2030905 Mon, 19 Jan 2015 12:29:42 +0000 blackbird 2030905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jedeve: That could totally be it, then! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/facial-swelling#post-2030902 Mon, 19 Jan 2015 12:26:51 +0000 jedeve 2030902@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blackbird: yeah sort of. I always am pretty avtive and go on long walks with the kids regularly. But I just started doing the thirty day shred a few days ago. (Even though I keep taking days off because I am sore! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/facial-swelling#post-2030891 Mon, 19 Jan 2015 12:21:31 +0000 blackbird 2030891@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Did you just start exercising? Your body will retain water and retain glycogen if you just started working out...it takes a bit for your body to be like "oh it's just exercise, i can chill out" and let go of that. It sends all the water and glycogen to your muscles </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/facial-swelling#post-2030887 Mon, 19 Jan 2015 12:20:12 +0000 jedeve 2030887@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel like my face is swollen the last couple days, kind of like it is toward the end of a pregnancy. (I'm not pregnant). I'm also up like 6 pounds since I weighed myself last (but I don't remember when that was. A few weeks ago?)</p> <p>Any idea what coud be going on? I've been exercising more so I would be surprised if I suddenly gained a bunch of weight. I did accidentally miss two days of BC (I'm on the mini pill). </p> <p>Ideas? </p>
