If there is infection/ cellulitis it could be the cause of the swelling. All unilateral swellings of the foot should be thoroughly investigated. The cure depends on the cause of the swelling in the first place.

If the swelling is persisting please meet with your doctor again. You need to be physically examined and if the infection is persisting it needs to be treated
