My face is swollen. Shall I visit ER or a doctor?

Hello doctor,

In the left side of my face right in front of the ear and around the lower back of my ear is swollen. I had a sore throat a few days before, and I have been coughing hard with lots of mucus. I had also swollen a teary, red, and slightly painful left eye, which started, a week before. What is this? Shall I go to the ER or doctor for my swollen face? I already consulted a doctor two days before the swelling and under antibiotics.

Can kitten allergy in family members make me allergic too?

Hi doctor,

I am thinking about getting a kitten, my father and brother are allergic to it. So, it will be kept in the upper room. I want to know if I have the same allergies. During my college days, I have spent six years with cats, never touched them but you could see them walking around, some even came close and hid under my tables.

I had to strain to have a bowel movement a few days ago. I instantly felt a lump in my throat after pushing. Can it potentially be a hiatal hernia?
