You need to get checked to make sure it's not a blood clot.
It's very difficult to determine why your leg might be swollen. If you have had an injury or recent surgery that might be a concern. You can go to the Emergency Room and they can run some tests to determine the cause.
You need to see a doctor close by. To make sure there is no blood clot. Go
to nearest urgent care or emergency room
