Foot and leg swelling suggest internal disease process. You need to consult your doctor before any other complication arises. Due to compression of this nerve root there is pain in your foot.
Physiotherapy like ultrasound and interferential therapy will give quick relief. I will advise to check your vit B12 and vit D3 level.
Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
