What causes swelling in right foot?

Can be injury or inflammation.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The swelling in one foot only can be due to an injury in the area or an inflammation of the foot joints like ankle or metatarsal joints. It is best to keep the leg elevated on two pillows while resting, decrease the salt intake and take a mild pain killer to reduce any inflammation. Doing a hot compress will also help in decreasing the swelling.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.

Not related to valve repair.

Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
A valve repair 6 months ago is not likely to be related to this swelling in a single foot.
