Hallo,
This sounds to me like common cold but the swelling of the cheek is something that is a little different form all other usual symptoms of common cold. Have you been using any antibiotics to treat the cold? You could also boost your immune system with lots of vitamin C. Have you noticed if you have any injuries in your inner side of cheek? Maybe you just bitten your cheek and it got swollen because of that?  You could try to apply some ice on your cheek to reduce the swelling but I am not sure how long can you bare to have ice on your cheek. Try with honey and ginger to reduce the symptoms of cold.

Good luck,

Karel

Get your thyriod checked, sounds like a hypo thyriod issue.
