What Is The Cause Of Pain And Swelling In The Hand?
About 24 hours ago my mother's hand began cramping and now it has swollen to twice its normal size. Her knuckles are bruised and purple. She hasn't been in any accidents recently and is experiencing pain that is not only concentrated in the joints. What could this possibly be?
