Red flag symptoms: Swelling, redness, heat of any joint indicates an inflammatory process. These conditions are potentially damaging to your joints, with loss of function and disability. Since there are several diagnoses to rule out, my best advice is for you to promptly seek the advice of your physician for a thorough history and physical exam.

Little Swelling: Can occur with a little to much alcohol intake or to much salt. If you are otherwise healthy then don't worry. If persists or gets worse see your pcp.
