Thank you for the concern. try to notice that this swelling appears suddenly after any injury or without any reason. If it is after injury than apply ice and take pain killer if there is pain. If this swelling appears suddenly without injury than it may be bleeding disorder or hemophillia than consult your treating physician immediately.
