Can u help diagnose swelling of the face

Question

Asked for Male, 32 Years

I've been smoking for overdecade and I think I developed chronic inflammation making my face to be enlarged and unattractive. Now I went to my doctor and asked about swelling of the face and he said right out that it's smoking causing it. Being stubborn I thought it could be a food allergy or something like water retention. Did skin pick tests and the results were allergy to grass and ragweeed so hay fever but I dont think I have hayfever. What I think it is is egg or milk allergy. Help

Chronic inflammation of face usually is not the result of allergy. You need to go for blood tests like CRP, liver function test and kidney function test.
