Hi There!: It depends mostly on the cause of the swelling and pain and where these findings are located. You need to se a doctor about this. Meanwhile, a general rule of thumb is elevating the part that's swollen, avoiding any clothing that may be cutting off circulation and taking OTC pain relievers as instructed on the bottle. Dr. Anne
