Hello sir,
The swelling you described has to be evaluated.
As swelling can be diffuse over area or could be over joints.
You need to visit to your treating doctor for evaluation of same, if any change in medication is required or an investigation to look for function of internal organs that might cause swelling.
If the swelling is localised to joint you might also need an orthopaedic consultation.
I hope for the best for you.
Thank you
