If swelling is a natural thing, why do we wear compression socks, elevate our swollen feet, and put them in ice? Doesnt the blood being there allow the body to cure the area?

This depends on the situation, swelling is the bodies natural response to help our bodies stop itself from hurting itself more while also helping to promote healing. The body can also go too far and swell up so much that it does unnecessary damage to your tissues, or aggravate other injuries.
