Glasgow lock Swinson suffered a broken hand in last week's 44-38 win over Samoa, while Edinburgh prop Nel sustained a fractured arm during the same match.
Harley, a Glasgow teammate of Swinson, suffered a knee injury in training last week that has put him out of the upcoming Tests against both New Zealand and Australia.
Wing Tommy Seymour suffered a toe injury against Samoa but he is set to return to training this week.
Welsh won the last of his 11 caps in a 2015 World Cup quarterfinal defeat by Australia at Twickenham.
