It would depend: On what caused the swelling.....Injury? Varicose veins? A clot in your leg? All three for example should be treated differently...

Swelling: The first right thing to do is determine the cause of the swelling . It could be uncontrolled hypertension , kidney disease , or congestive heart failure to name 3 that aren't near your foot . See your podiatrist for an evaluation and if it IS something else you will be referred appropriately
