Mental Retardation, Swelling In Hand. Abusive Activities At The Medical Facility?

Hello, my name is Shiv and I have a question about my brother who suffers from mental retardation due to medical malpractice. His facility called our home today to inform us that they are taking him to the hospital because the back of his left hand is swollen. I wanted to know what medical conditions could be the reason for the swelling in his hand. Unfortunately, my family has been suspecting some sort of abusive activities at his facility and we seek help! Thank you
