What Is The Cure For Swelling, Bruising And Pain On Leg?

Got stab wound in lower right leg. On outer side below the knee, but now the whole lower leg is swelling when I am walking. Gets worse everyday. Bruising visible at ankle and ankle and calf swells up. Pain is at bottom of calf muscle. Stab wound was about 4 inches in going down.
