I feel am being strangled, does anyone know why I would feel that way?

it's been about 4 hours. around my jaw and bottom and sides of my face cheeks feel real puffy like I have whole bunch a cotton balls there and the back of my neck mostly in the middle and the back and bottom of my head. Am trying to massage it away. Laying down is not helping, sitting up and standing or even walking around.
I have been feeling a stress high for the past 5 days, it's just not as bad the last two days of the stress high with an extreme headache.
