She may have been stung by a bee/hornet. One of my chickens was stung by a hornet once and I gave her a very small amount of Benadryl to reduce the swelling. Idk the exact dose though.
 
Can you look into the beak for yellow plaques or growths that might be canker, a protozoan infection? Is there a bad odor? Sometimes there can be tumors inside the beak.
