I had this exact same issue with my cat not long ago. It's uncanny as to how similar your issue is! But in our cat's scenario, the swelling went down on its own after several hours. It's certainly possible that she had an injury to her mouth. In our cat's situation, the vet noticed a small red irritation in her mouth. They suspect that it might've been an insect bite, which set off the swelling as a reaction. But my hunch- my cat was chewing something that she wasn't supposed to (I had caught her chewing on some packaging from an Amazon package that had just arrived the day before), and for some reason it caused the massive swelling the next morning. Cats don't get cold sores, but if they do have feline herpes (and if Nailo spent any time in a shelter, she probably picked it up) it can cause rashes in their face and irritation in their respiratory system. I hope you find the cause of Nailo's swelling. Has it improved at all, ever since you've created this thread?
