So I'm not exactly sure what's going on with my face but when I came back from the concert at like midnight (and being outside waiting for the concert in low 40 degree sunny weather) my face was all swollen/red.
Now there could be like 3 things as to why the swelling/redness isn't going away? (It's been like 3 hours)
1) getting sunburned from being outside all day while waiting in line.. (didn't seem that way when I took a few pictures of myself and went to the bathroom..)
2) getting sunburned by the stage lights since I was dead front center? Is that even possible? To get sunburned by stage lighting?
3) The guitarist of Armor for Sleep kicked my face while crowd diving... -- But it looks like a sunburn, even though I may have a ton of bruising..?
And finally what do I do to reduce the swelling/redness?

Could it be wind burn too? It was REALLY cold/windy when I was out for like 8 hours...

Ice bag wrapped in a towel. On for twenty mins and off for twenty mins.
Pretty sure this is from getting kicked in the face.

Did some research on the light and its a no. The worst it can do is damage your eyes, but apparently it does not cause sunburn.
Windburn may be the culprit.On cold days, people will often confuse their sunburn as a windburn. Windburn is actually a distinct condition whereby the top layer of oil is removed from the skin, causing excessive dryness that leads to redness and a burning feeling.

lol. It'll go away. Sounds like a good time except for the line dancing. Oh, question. Put a nice steak on it for a while. Then cook it and send it to me.

I'd sue the perpetrator.
