What Causes Swelling In Arm After Having Stitches On Little Finger?
My husband had several stitches in cuts on his little finger last Monday. We went back to minor care yesterday and the antibiotic was changed and he was given an antibiotic shot. His hand, wrist and arm are still very swollen. Is this a cause of concern? YYYY@YYYY

thank-you user for your query.
I understand your concern.
As per your history well don't worry about swelling as it can be a normal inflammatory response to the wound in little finger. You may start taking piroxicam tablet as this will reduce the inflammation in the finger.
god bless
