What Causes Swelling On The Right Foot?

For some time , my right foot has been swelling for no apparent reason. It may not swell every day but when it swells I find it to be uncomfortable ( tinging, walking obviously swollen , uncomfortable. ) Sometimes , as yesterday and today show, the foot is still uncomfortable. I try to keep it warm and apply penetris, a pain relief cream, and elevate. What can be the cause, Doctor?
