Can a sinus infection cause the side of your nose to become hard and swollen?

Answer 1

No, a sinus infection cannot cause swelling of the lips. However, an allergy to a medication you are taking can cause lip swelling or tingling. You should report this to your doctor. An allergy can occur even with over the counter meds, or even if you took a med before without any problems.

Answer 2

Yes. A food allergy can cause this, or even something your lip has come into contact with (jewelry, straws, soda cans, etc) It could also be caused by a drug allergy, or even an insect bite. Have a doctor look at it to be sure of the cause. Certainly. Allergies often cause soft tissue to swell, one of the reasons that people have a hard time breathing when they are exposed to something they are allergic to.
