    Abstract:
    This case report refers to a 21-year-old primigravida, who complained of dyspnoea and was noticed to have unusual swelling of the face and neck after home delivery. A diagnosis of subcutaneous emphysema was made and this was confirmed with the chest X-ray. Pneumomediastinum and hydropneumothorax were also detected. Uneventful recovery over three days followed conservative management.
