Why is there swelling of hands and feet? And how is it diagnosed? Thx
swelling of hand and feet caused by extra fluid that builds up in the tissues of your body. Many things can cause fluid to build up. Sometimes gravity pulls fluid down into your legs and feet. Sitting or standing still for too long can cause swelling of the legs, especially in hot weather. Eating food with too much salt can make the problem worse.
is been diagnose by examining The skin over the swollen area may be stretched and shiny. Pushing gently on the swollen area for about 15 seconds will leave a dimple. If this happens, doctor might want to do some tests to see what is causing the swelling.
