A red swollen face can be a skin sign of a potentially life-threatening condition. We present in detail the main clinical presentations, diagnostic tests, and management of some of the most severe conditions that can frequently present as a red and swollen face: acute or recurrent angioedema, mast cell-driven or bradykinin-mediated angioedema, nonhereditary and hereditary angioedema, allergic or photoallergic facial contact dermatitis, contact urticaria, severe adverse drug reactions (particularly drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms [DRESS]), skin infections (erysipelas, cellulitis, necrotizing fasciitis), and autoimmune diseases (dermatomyositis). There are many other conditions that also have to be considered in the differential diagnosis of a red swollen face.
