Hello Thanks for writing in.
After reading your question, I would suggest you visit a doctor at the earliest for a physical examination. The cause of the pain could arise from anything from musculo-skeletal(bone, muscle, tendon,soft tissue) to vascular to neurogenic.
It is difficult to interpret without examining the leg and if required do an xray/ultrasound for the swelling to begin with.
Hope this helps. Do write in again for any queries.
Take care.
