Hi, your mother has uterus cancer, 3rd stage, renal failure, copd, clots in the lungs, so any thing is possible, but as the swelling of the fingers is changing from place to place, it could be the allergy to the tablets she is using or to the changes in the tissues.
As she must be under the treatment i advise you to consult your doctor. Thank you.
