Hi,
Swelling around an incision site may be normal. As long as the incision is not leaking, painful or massively swollen with fluid easily palpated this may be simply normal response to incision and the healing process. If the dog is eating and drinking, has normal body temperature (99.5-102.5, x=101.5) this is likely normal. If in doubt, followup with your doctor for confirmation.

She is acting fine. the swollen is around the incision site. She is eating good going to the bath fine
Hi...could you share some more information? Where is she swollen? Around the incision site? Her vulva? Her abdomen? Also, how is she acting? Is she still eating/drinking? Urinating ok? Defecating?
Knowing a little more detail will help.
