Swollen feet

I had a bike accident two days ago. I fell from the bike and couldn't stand properly on my left foot. Soon I reached the hospital and got first aid and a detailed x-ray. Doctors didn't find any fracture or broken in the bone. They suspected this ligament injury and advised for rest, ice, compression and elevation. I'm following the same and taking proper medicine also. Now my left foot is swollen and I noticed redness. What could be the reason and what remedies should I follow, please suggest.

Venous malformation

Sorry to disturb you all. Actually I posted an mri few days back which had swelling on my left wrist.. there were 2 possible diagnosis written.. ganglion and venous malformation. So I was advised a contrast study to rule out venous malformation . But the contrast says it's more likely to be a venous malformation what do I do ?. My left hand is paining slightly beyond wrist joint going upwards.. it starts from fingers especially index and crosses the joint and goes little further . So making a fist is little painful.. ! Movements of hands are painful too. Actually this used to be there from many years.. only in last 3-4 weeks it started paining a lot and has also grown in size. Is surgery an option to remove it?
