Lupus can cause kidney problems in some people, slowing the removal of fluids from the body. The fluid collects in the hands and feet causing them to swell. See the related link for a full breakdown of Lupus and it's symptoms.

Yes, it is possible for lupus to cause the face to swell. It's also possible that treatments for lupus can also cause swelling that affects the face. If this is a new symptom, the patient should contact their physician for a diagnosis and advice on what to do next.
