Swelling in a leg muscle with little pain can be due to a muscle strain, minor injury, fluid buildup, or sometimes a circulation issue. You can try rest, keeping the leg elevated, applying ice or a warm compress, and gentle compression with a bandage. However, if the swelling is persistent, see a doctor to rule out conditions like infection or a blood clot.
