Reason For Swelling In Hands After Donating Plasma?

I donated plasma today, I used to do it regularly a few months ago but for some reason today my hands started swelling and I became very light headed and almost fainted. This has never happened before. My hands are still a bit swollen, Should I be concerned?

Hi
Hope this message finds you in good health.
I have gone through your complaints and understand your concern.
U seem to have generalised weakness and deficiency of vitamins,calcium,minerals proteins and micro-nutrients.
Though temporary,it will eventually heal.
Take rest and some healthy protein powder.
Physiotherapy,analgesics,anti-inflammatory drugs should help.
Nothing to worry about.
I hope your question has been answered.
