I strongly suggest that this swelling get could be related to less circulation and weakness of foot muscle which is not able to push fluid up from there. I suggest to keep your elevated with pillow use below your ankle. As well do maximum movement of feet along with toe stretch as well plantar surface stretch. And wait for 2 days.

If swelling is not reducing and there is a symptom of pain then you need to visit a vascular doctor and need to have check on lower limb dopler and take treatment as per his suggestion after having proper physical check by him.

Hope you got your answer and it will be useful for you. Take care.
