Hi Anonymous,
There can certainly be many things that will cause pain and swelling. Did you have any trauma to the area? You explained that you had it in a weird position, you may have sprained it. If you are in pain, I would certainly go to the doctor and have it checked.

I hope this helps. Please keep us updated.
