Observe your baby's hand for redness,peeling or pain,swelling in other parts of body (eyes,feet,lips)breathung difficulty or noisy breathing then immediately take him to the doctor.Isolated swollen has could be due to allergic reaction like detergent,latex some newly introduced food or some insect bite.
Hope this answer is helpful.Good luck
