Answer:

Above the level of your heart

Explanation:

Elevating an injury above the level of your heart will help minimize swelling by allowing fluid to drain away from the area. If you can't raise it above your heart, try to keep the injured area at the same level as your heart or close to it.

Above the heart

If you ever bleed you are told to hold it up it slows down the blood flow and causes it to relax.
