Have Swelling, Bruising And Burning In The Hand

This has happened twice within the last few months. I wake in the morning, my biceps burn on my right arm. No trauma . Within a day I have bruising from my armpit down to my elbow. Red one inch stripe down from there to my wrist. Now three days later my hand is swollen.
