What Causes Swelling And Pain In Right Foot And Hand?
My right foot has been slightly swollen for about three weeks. It hurts to walk on the ball and across the base of my toes. This week my right hand has swollen as well, enough that I can t get rings on or off, although it is still otherwise functional. There is no pain in my hand. The hand swelling decreases over the course of the day; there is little to no change in my foot. Ibuprofen helps the foot pain temporarily. Thoughts?
