Swollen caff and foot

2017-09-28 22:47:32
About a week ago fell off my motorcycle going about 25. I got a few decently bad scrapes but nothing too bad. Today i noticed my foot is swollen where it wasn't before. is this normal? I have been walking around but favoring the leg. i haven't had it raised that much. Do i just need to keep it raised? Nothing seems badly infected (experienced eye)
