Guest https://en.m.wikipedia.org Posted May 7, 2023 Report Share Posted May 7, 2023 Any insect bite marks on the arm? Did u eat anything unusual that might be causing some allergic reaction? Or maybe could be deep vein thrombosis. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_vein_thrombosis but you should ask @singalion who is the know-it-all God of BW.

singalion Posted May 7, 2023 Report Share Posted May 7, 2023 hm. better see doc if it doesn't improve after 1 day Swelling in the arms and hands is often caused by a build-up of fluid in these areas, called oedema. Oedema is usually caused by: staying in the same position for too long eating too much salty food being overweight being pregnant – read about swollen ankles, feet and fingers in pregnancy taking certain medicines – such as some blood pressure medicines, contraceptive pills, antidepressants or steroids Oedema can also be caused by: an injury – such as a strain or sprain sudden changes in temperature – such as very hot weather an insect bite or sting problems with your kidneys, liver or heart a blood clot an infection Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Dontplayplay Posted May 14, 2023 Report Share Posted May 14, 2023 If the liquid builds up it may overflow into the lung. You will feel breathless and nausea. See a doctor asap before it becomes serious and have to be hospitalised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
