Fat or bloating/skin laxity?

Kovandy · February 2016

Hello everyone, my name is andy, and im trying to understand what is going on on my cheeks.
They look puffy, but they are not fat (i think) if i press against them, it feel like a sponge, and i'm not sure if it's fat or bloating/skin laxity.
Before i lost weight my cheeks were fat, and "solid"
how can i tell if its fat or not?
thank you guys

Could be a bunch of things. A food allergy, too much sodium, hives, a reaction to a high caff drink, even your genes.
Start tracking your daily sodium as a start.

It could also be a symptom of hypothyroidism if it comes on intermittently.

Here's my face with hypothyroidism. This happens every few months.

And how much does the "swelling" usually last?

i checked online the symptoms and i may have hypothyroidism

Atleast 3 days, sometimes longer.
