It seems that unfortunately your cousin contacted the cancer of oral cavity for which he has undergone surgery and now on chemotherapy. Treatment is really expensive, but essential. Considering his young age. I will suggest him to enroll to a govt oncology hospital to get the medicines.

Hi he is probably suffering ftom maxillary cancer. Swelling is normal after surgery. However it should subside after 6 weeks. If it persist recurrence should be ruled out.
