What Causes Swelling On Finger Tips With Numbness?

What could cause swollen finger tips in one hand only, with some numbness and it comes and goes without warning? This is for my teenage daughter, she showed me her left hand and all fingertips are swollen and feel tight or puffy. When comparing her right hand there is definitely a difference between the way the fingertips look and feel.

It can be due to either arthralgia or Raynauds phenomena. I would recommend you to show it to physcian. Some time insect bite or allergic reaction can also present with such picture.
