where is the swelling and what casued that?
For any injury - cold - even ice compresses.  Othat than that - not so much OTC.

Ice and elevate.  But I would hold on until you see the doc.   Some issues shall not be treated with ice (i.e. Renault syndrome, or Gout).
Swelling of extremities is also one of symtoms of low proteins level...
