See a dr.: Best to get an evaluation, as you may have a severe muscle sprain or an underlying infection that needs to be evaluated and treated. Best wishes.

Pain is a sign: your body is telling you there is something wrong. you need to see a doctor for this ASAP as the swelling is in an unusual area. it sounds like you may have a possible skin or soft tissue infection that is spreading.
