HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Swelling normally occurs as a result of inflammation. Inflammation can be due to infection, allergy, trauma or less common causes.
You may want to consider the use of an anti inflammatory pain killer. This would help to reduce the discomfort that you are experiencing as well as to help reduce any swelling.
I hope this helps
