Brief Answer:
Internal medicine...

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Feet pain and swelling have few medical causes. It may be related to bones and joints; vascular supply; liver, renal and heart condition. In this context I inform patients to visit an internal medicine specialist for initial evaluation. After a detailed physical examination, the patient can be referred an appropriate second specialist.

Since the cause is unclear, it would be worthwhile to consult a physician.

Hope this helps.
