Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
What the swelling you are seeing could be the soft tissue inflammation although exact clinical observation will clear the picture but in absence of pain and tenderness there is nothing to worry. In my opinion it is better to see the doctor just to clear the doubt.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Akhtarhusain
