You should put your hand under ice and take some anti inflammatory pills to bring down the swelling. But remember swelling is normal.

First, soak your hand in cold water for at least ten minutes. Then take an anti-inflammatory, such as Ibuprofen. If the swelling does not go down within twenty-four hours, seek medical treatment.

First of all you must determine the cause of the swelling. Treatment for swelling varies depending on what casued it. Insect bites or bee stings can be treated with topical preparations and anti-histamines. Sports injuries or repetitive stress can be treated with ice, rest, and anti-imflammatories. Contact your doctor if the swelling has no discenible cause or does not improve.
