So, I went out to feed and put away birds this evening and I noticed one of my turkeys was "coughing" upon closer look, it looks as though it's "cheeks" are swollen. I'm finding a sinus disease, (which they will forever carry) but will it spread to my other birds? Do I need to put it down, will it be ok? (Turkey is 4 month old broad breasted bronze from Orschelns) First time turkey mom, not sure what to do! Please help and thank you!!!

If it's for sure the sinus disease, you should put him down. Do you have a picture of him?

I'm not 100% sure what it is, when I googled turkey with swollen cheeks, that's what came up. I really have no idea. I didn't have my phone on me when I went out there. I can try and get one, might be best to wait until morning, might see better.
 
Here are some pictures, I can try and get some more tomorrow in the daylight if needed.
