Afternoon all!

Happened to just notice on of my pekin bantams has a seriously swollen side of her face and it's blue. It's not around her eye but the bit behind it and the wattle - don't know much chicken face terminology!

The other side is completely normal.
Is this an infection or could it be something more serious?
Also should I take her to ther vet?
Photos below should explain... showing normal side and bad side.

Have checked for that and can't find the stinger.
Am slightly worried as her throat just below her beak is also blue.
