Allergic to mint? Maybe not

I seem to have an allergic reaction to mint things but I feel it might be something else, I get really bad reactions from those Andes mints as well as those pastel mints with the white sprinkles but I seem to be fine with things like toothpaste, cough drops and even those peppermint swirl candies. I haven't ate Andes mints or those pastel mint either for fear of getting a reaction again (my face swells up and gets blotchy) so could it be something else, like something in the flavoring?
