Recurrent swelling under both eyes which started a year ago. The area swells up, turns red, & then it goes away. Left side is always worse than right side. I've seen my GP & my dermatologist; neither have any idea what these are. I have a severely deviated septum. I was told to double my allergy meds & begin nasal steroids in case it was allergies.
