What Does Swelling In The Hand Indicate?
I recently had my prostate removed due to prostate cancer. For the last week, a major vein in my left hand has been very tender and firm. It also has no color. The other veins are blue. My left hand is swolen in the tender area. What does this mean. Could there be a blood clot?
