What Causes Swelling In Hand And Forearm?
About 2 weeks ago my 88 year old mother noticed that her left hand
was swollen (no pain, not red, has no fever, just swollen) and a littlebit of her
forearm is swollen. She had a test for blood clots, test was negative, and her
veins were checked, etc., also negative. Any suggestions.
