I Had Five Stitches In My Shin 3 Days Ago

I had five stitches in my shin 3 days ago - I'm on antibiotics - the area is still very swollen - in the morning it feels especially painful - should I be walking on it to aid recovery or is it best to rest the leg as much as possible - the wound was to the bone.
