Suggest Treatment For Swelling On Feet

Good Afternoon, My name is Sylvia and my question is regarding my 27 yrs. old daughter. My daughter have a lupus, 3 days ago her foot start swelling up and she went to the doctor for a check up and they told her that it s not a bug bite and just take a blood and urine test, that will take a week to get a result. Today she post on facebook that it is hard to walk now. I am worried, is there anything we can do to stop the swelling of her feet?
