What Causes Swelling And Pain In The Hands?
I’ve had two episodes within the last three weeks of chills (no apparent fever), swollen lips with pinpoint sore spots, swollen painful hands and pain when lifting my arms. I also became breathless on mild exertion. I am normally a very healthy person. I am seeing my Doctor as soon as I can get in but I was wondering if these symptoms could be due to allergy.

Hi,
The swelling and pain in the hands may not be related to allergy. This can be related to tendonitis also. You can start with a mild pain killer and see if it helps.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Praveen Tayal,
Orthopedic Surgeon
