    First, find out why the leg is swollen? The Vet should have something for pain and to calm it down if necessary.

    make him feel relaxed, as pain will feel worse when stressed,

    comfort him with treats and lots of praise

    try not to move the injured leg too muchDO NOT GIVE HIM HIUMAN MEDICINE!!!! IT WILL CAUSE KIDNEY FAILURE!!GO TO THE VET RIGHT AWAY!!!!!!!!!

    You make sure he has a soft, well padded surface to cushion the injury while waiting for the urgent vet appointment today.

    DO NOT give human pain killers. Most are toxic to dogs.

    Make him "comfy?"  You don't.  He's in pain.

    You take an injured dog to the Vet immediately.
