Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query you have infection on face along with facial swelling and pain. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like chicken pox, acne, psoriasis, seborrhea dermatitis, allergic reaction and trigeminal neuralgia. I would suggest you to consult dermatologist for proper examination. Doctor may order complete blood profile or skin test. Doctor may prescribe antibiotics like clindamycin or minocycline at least for 10 days along with anti-inflammatory and steroid ointment. For now wash your face with cold water and mild soap, apply moisturizer and do not apply any cosmetic product.  Chat Doctor.  You should take diet rich in multivitamins. You should take vitamin B12 supplements as well.  Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
