🙂we are same me too my hand swell during winter and it's winter now so was checking how to reduce my swelling but end up knowing that it is call chilblains hahaha thanks to your comment
I can't bend my fingers in winter but there is not really skin to peel Last years weird looking wounds started to from on some areas I am kinda scared for this winters
My son was playing soccer and got hit on the hand while trying to save the ball. The area on his palm by his thumb is swollen... 3 times bigger than normal. Iced it but he won't let me touch it due to pain. Looks like muscle because fingers are moving. Should I take him to hospital?
Ever since I was a kid I would get stiff hands or wake with them stiff and sore. It's worse after working with hand tools but it doesn't take much. I did a keto diet for almost 3 months and it went away for the first time in my life. It came back despite giving up sugar and eating healthy but not keto.
I fell on wrist a couple days ago its still swollen this gave some relief its just hard to keep my hand up.. cant really close the hand how often should I do these?
between my elbow and shoulder it is not banding and if i am trying to bend it it is not bending and it is at 90 degree not 180 degree and it is swelling to, because i have done push ups for the first time and 5 days past away for this so plese tell me some soultion for this releted to therary and i am .thanks wating for your reply !
I’m sorry it’s hurting!! I’m not sure I completely understand what you’re describing...are you having trouble bending the elbow? Or lifting the shoulder?
Hmm...sounds like it might be time to call the doctor and check in! Since it’s been about a week since it happened and you still have significant pain, I’d recommend calling your doctor.
Please help me My finger got hit by the fan my thumb got swollen after putting ice I can move my fingers but i am little worried about the thumb which is swollen I can move my thumb but I am scared that is it broken and I have small cut in my thumb but that doesn't pain please reply
Oh no!! I’m sorry that happened. If the pain and swelling continues, it would be worth going to the doctor and getting an x-ray to see if there’s a fracture. It would be unlikely that you’d have a fracture if you don’t have pain. Probably just a soft tissue injury! But keep an eye on it and when in doubt, check it out with your doctor.
My grandfather has swelling in his index finger and thumb and now it is spreading all over the other fingers too. We went to specialist, took so many medicines but it didn't work at all. Can you plz suggest me some home remedy for swelling? Currently, I'm applying ice cubes for some relief. I'll be so grateful to you if you clear my doubt whethet it is a symptom of Flexor tenosynovitis? Plzz reply soon I'm waiting for your response
Tell me a little more about his symptoms! Flexor tenosynovitis typically presents with a nodule/lump in the palm, usually right at the palm crease. It also can have clicking, locking, or triggering of the finger, and stiffness and pain.
@@ForwardTherapy Symptoms like, swelling of entire finger, intense pain when trying to bend the finger, feeling numbness & stiffness in finger, and sometimes it feels like something is moving inside the finger. Plz recommend some medicines or home remedy. Currently, he's applying ice cubes on fingers and doing physiotherapy. & must appreciate your kindness towards humanism :) Thanks ma'am
I’m not a doctor so I can’t recommend medicine! But therapy should be helpful!! Sometimes it helps to take a look at nutrition and make sure he’s getting enough vitamins and minerals, and noticing when eating if any foods seem to trigger the symptoms. NIH is a good website to look at for nutrition! Numbness usually indicates nerve involvement as well. Definitely speak with the physiotherapist and talk about home management program to help him when he’s not at therapy, too!!
@@ForwardTherapy Alright ma'am Hope you understand the current circumstances due to coronavirus, we're not able to go anywhere. That's why we're getting more distressed don't know what should we do? It's my humble request if you clear my confusion about trigger finger and flexor tenosynovitis according to the symptoms I've told. Thanks ma'am
Flexor tenosynovitis is a fancier name for trigger finger. Typically will have a nodule in the palm that is painful with pressure, and will have clicking or locking when bending the finger. Swelling is not typically observed in the entire finger, more at the nodule. Try ice massage, retrograde massage, contrast baths, and pumping exercises to see if the swelling comes down. Does he have arthritis?
Hey I usually get swelling in my hands when walking not all the time but sometimes.. I was wondering if there's some sort of cause to it? Iv recently had my vitals checked my dr cant pin point it I do have high blood pressure some times and other than that I do have high cholesterol iv been working to get down but this swelling has been going on for years since I was a teen, was wondering if there's a common reason?
It’s common to get swelling in the hands with cardiovascular activity (even when nothing is wrong) especially with heat! Our hands are below heart level and swelling gets stuck there
My fingers wont close already and the joints is swollen and its very painful if i accendentaly close my finger yhia due to overuse in my job... what should i do to relief the pain
Generally safe-for-everyone therapy modalities that can help with pain include heat and ice! You should consult with your doctor and see if there are other strategies
No I recently went camping and I think I got a bug bite It was super itchy but I can’t find the bite because one of the nights I left the door open to the tent
Oh dang!!! Well if it doesn’t get better in a few days (or starts getting worse at any time) you might wanna check with a doctor, it could be an infection.
My whole right hand got swollen and I’m an artist and a writer. Although I’m ambidextrous, I like using both hands and it would be difficult to draw and write
@@alizain6634 hmm...I think it could be possible, but I'm definitely not an expert in this area. I would recommend talking with a physician about it, because in my understanding symptoms from chilblains should go away within a couple of weeks. But maybe there is something lingering with the circulation that could cause increased swelling?
i broke my wrist a few days ago, and my fingers on the hand i broke them on are swollen. the soft cast is cover most if the hand, not the fingers. any advice? i would really appreciate it :)
Elevate as much as you can (hand above elbow, elbow slightly above shoulder)! Pumping exercises with the fingers will help a lot, and you can try retrograde massage for your fingers as well! ua-cam.com/video/qlIJ-1fXxOw/v-deo.html Should be ok to use ice on your fingers, too.
I can’t close my fist, and also the moving the fingers back-and-forth the second exercise on I was able to do it then I stopped and I’m not able to do it anymore it seem like it’s water retention
Pumping exercises can be difficult at first when your hand is swollen! They can also feel uncomfortable. Keep elevating the hand and try using ice to help with the swelling, and try to elevate the hand and do finger movements like pumping every couple hours. You can also try retrograde massage! Swelling can come back, so sometimes you have to keep doing the exercises and using ice and elevating,
Can you please answer me actually I don't know why but my hand above the wrist and below the fingers it's swollen but not that much severe and I don't know why it happened
What happened? A lot of the tips in this video will likely be helpful for reducing swelling for you but it helps if I know more about the injury. If you aren’t comfortable posting about your injury here, check with your doctor!

Hi, sorry to hear about your injury! I’m not a doctor, but it sounds like you should follow a rest, ice, and elevation protocol in the first couple weeks. Sprains can take a while! Always good to have a doctor check it out to make sure it is a sprain and advise on the best treatment plan
Hi i notice from couple of days that my left hand palm and finger little bit swellen than right i m just wondring how does it heppen becuse does not hurt tell me what i need to do. Thanks for your support
Seems like a good sign it doesn’t hurt! Keep an eye on it, if it doesn’t seem to go away, might want to follow up with a doctor. No injury or trauma that might have occurred?
Hey there i have a question, does bacterial infection like tuberculosis will cause inflammation in hand? How long will it take to reduce pain and swelling after taking medication?
My fingers were swollen because of the cold and even after my finger is recovered it is still big from other fingers. Do you have any treatment for it?
It definitely could be! That’s a lot of load on the hand for a long period of time. For example your head weighs about 10 lb and if you sleep with your head in your hand all night that’s a lot of weight for the hand to be taking stress from!
@@deborahvasquez it's hard to control what you're doing during sleep. I think the best thing you can do is fall asleep in a good position, maybe hug a pillow or something? If it's causing numbness/tingling when you wake up sometimes a splint or brace can help!
My hand just became painful out of the blue, 2days later it's more painful and swollen! Please help cus I can't work without my right hand. And if I can't work I can't earn money😥
Oh no! I’m so sorry to hear that! Anything that could have happened, like a bug bite or getting a cut on your hand somehow? Or having some sort of injury? I would definitely recommend checking in with a doctor if the symptoms seem to be getting worse.
So, I was playing with my friends and the ball had a small spike on it and it poked my finger. My finger started swelling 2-4 minutes later. So how could I treat this, I put ice put it didn’t help that much.
Glad the swelling is better! May be itchy due to a histamine immune response? The body probably trying to flush any foreign matter out and respond to heal. Keep an eye on it!
Sometimes band aids can be too tight, and they usually restrict motion which can cause swelling (esp if there was a cut or something, the body is sending inflammation to help heal). Take the band aids off for a little bit and do some of these movements and hopefully it’ll help!
Mam pliz help me I m very sad . Because my hand swelling problem is not reduced overall two ✌year I have many treatment to this but nothing Please help me
Swollen from bench pressing? I’m sorry to hear it!! Is it painful? For swelling typically movement helps, as well as elevating the arm above the heart (hand and elbow above shoulder level) and using an ice pack. Hope it gets better!
I really need you help, I broke my wrist as a high school freshman, went to the doctor did physical therapy for 2 years but no results that were good. I’m now in my second year of college and My hand stays swollen 24/7 and my wrist is always weak still.
Hello, I hurt my ring finger and my little finger while playing soccer. The little finger actually got dislocated and I got it put back. I'm still unable to make a fist and theres swelling and inflammation around the middle joints .. how can I gain full range of motion if that's still possible
Be very very gentle with it. If you haven’t yet seen a doctor I would recommend you get X-rays and make sure the joint wasn’t damaged (sometimes when they’re relocated on the playing field there can be ligamentous damage that occurs). It’s still so early on and it greatly depends on how severe the damage to the tissues is - I can’t advise you properly without knowing exactly the severity and what structures were damaged
When joints are dislocated, ligaments are torn or damaged. They are not well vascularized, and they take 6-8 weeks to heal. They’re important because they hold the joints stable. So if it doesn’t heal properly or doesn’t get the appropriate medical management, there can be long term damages to the joint.
@@ForwardTherapy okay I understand that would be my next step i will go get an xray done just to make sure of what's happened in there because I feel theres been some damage from within. I'll let you know what I find. Than you for help I appreciate it
There has been no evidence to suggest damage due to cracking your knuckles gently! Shouldn’t be painful and you don’t want to be extremely aggressive with it to avoid overloading.
I'm 14 ears old and my fingers feel swollen, numb and when I bend my fingers it hurts. First it started with my pinky then with all my fingers except my thumbs. Any advice please respond!!!
Oh, no! I’m sorry to hear that!! Sounds like a nerve - could be compression or overstretched. Likely due to positioning or posture. I’d go get a doctor to check you out and make sure there isn’t something else going on!
All my fingers on my right hand and my toes on my right foot got swollen because of the cold, i heared that resting the swollen part of the body in warm water with salt in it for 10 to 15 minutes would relive the redness and swelling, I've tried it and its not itchy anymore. I wanted to know how long it takes for it to get fully better just in case it doesnt cause my google is glitching i really appriciate you and your channel because you answer people's comments and questions and always try to respond to check in and ask them if they are okay 🙂
Depends on where the fracture is! If your fingers are free, move them as much as possible like seen in the video!! Sometimes casts are made to come up too high, preventing full finger movement. If this is the case and you have a broken wrist, in which the fingers don’t need to be immobilized, go back to the doctor or casting tech and ask them to free up the fingers. But always refer to your doctor - they know exactly what needs to be immobilized!
@@ForwardTherapy I woke up this morning with my hand swollen plus my ring was stuck so I was freaking out because I couldn't get it off!! so I found your video and like Magic the swollenness went down and my ring came off. Thank you thank you thank you
Ah that’s the worst feeling ever! I’ve had my ring get stuck before and it was scary enough to make me never wear it to bed again! So glad it worked (:
I'm sorry it hurts so much! I'd recommend elevating the hand, using ice 10-15 minutes to help with the pain. but some protected gentle movement can help, too! just be gentle.
Ice, elevation, and gentle active movement opening and closing the fingers (spreading them apart and bringing them together) are all good ways to reduce swelling
Swelling in the fingers can be tricky! Ice and elevation are a good place to start, and you can try these pumping exercises (movement tends to really help), or try a contrast bath (switching between cool and warm water), or try retrograde massage ua-cam.com/video/qlIJ-1fXxOw/v-deo.html I hope that helps! Good luck with your finger!

Do you have any treatment for it?
Sorry to hear that! Cold related injuries may require additional exam from a doctor!
I think at some point when I sleep I roll onto my right hand. It hurts so much in the morning.
It definitely could be! That’s a lot of load on the hand for a long period of time. For example your head weighs about 10 lb and if you sleep with your head in your hand all night that’s a lot of weight for the hand to be taking stress from!
@@ForwardTherapy any tips on stopping yourself I'm a heavy sleeper. I don't realize I'm doing it.
@@deborahvasquez it's hard to control what you're doing during sleep. I think the best thing you can do is fall asleep in a good position, maybe hug a pillow or something? If it's causing numbness/tingling when you wake up sometimes a splint or brace can help!
My hand just became painful out of the blue, 2days later it's more painful and swollen!
Please help cus I can't work without my right hand. And if I can't work I can't earn money😥
Oh no! I’m so sorry to hear that! Anything that could have happened, like a bug bite or getting a cut on your hand somehow? Or having some sort of injury?
I would definitely recommend checking in with a doctor if the symptoms seem to be getting worse.
Same for 4days
Can we use this after throwing plate in a hand
not entirely sure what you mean, but these strategies are effective for reducing swelling in the hand and fingers.
So, I was playing with my friends and the ball had a small spike on it and it poked my finger. My finger started swelling 2-4 minutes later. So how could I treat this, I put ice put it didn’t help that much.
Did you get cut by it? Or did it jam the finger?
The thing was kind of sharp and pierced my outer skin layer.
Dang!! Keep a close eye on it to make sure you don’t get an infection from that!!
The swelling got better but if I rub on it, it’s a bit itchy.
Glad the swelling is better! May be itchy due to a histamine immune response? The body probably trying to flush any foreign matter out and respond to heal. Keep an eye on it!
Is it good for me my little finger swelled due to arthritis and whole finer swelled .... PlZ
Hopefully these motions and strategies help!!
I had bands on my hand and I fell asleep now my hand is swollen idk what to do and idk if this helps
Sometimes band aids can be too tight, and they usually restrict motion which can cause swelling (esp if there was a cut or something, the body is sending inflammation to help heal). Take the band aids off for a little bit and do some of these movements and hopefully it’ll help!
I snapped my thumb and got my ring finger swollen in football is been like 2 weeks and nothin has healed, I’ve been icing it a lot.
Sorry to hear that! Have you checked in with a doctor to make sure nothing is fractured or sprained?
Is it will be helpful for chilblains fingers too?
Chilblains aren’t caused by swelling, it’s caused by cold exposure. So I wouldn’t think these things would be very helpful in clearing it!!
@@ForwardTherapy my fingers got swellon due to chilblains .. aren't these exercises will help to reduce this kind of swelling too
Ah!! Ok! I see what you’re saying - I misunderstood. Yes, I would think doing pumping exercises would help!
Mam pliz help me
I m very sad . Because my hand swelling problem is not reduced overall two ✌year
I have many treatment to this but nothing
Please help me
Sorry to hear about your hand! Have you seen a doctor?
I was bench pressing and the hole top of my right hand is swollen and pusssy I can't see my veins or nothing help😭
Swollen from bench pressing? I’m sorry to hear it!! Is it painful? For swelling typically movement helps, as well as elevating the arm above the heart (hand and elbow above shoulder level) and using an ice pack. Hope it gets better!
Thank you
I bender my ringer and got swelling
I really need you help, I broke my wrist as a high school freshman, went to the doctor did physical therapy for 2 years but no results that were good. I’m now in my second year of college and My hand stays swollen 24/7 and my wrist is always weak still.
Oh no! I’m sorry to hear that! You’re still experiencing a lot of swelling? What kind of exercises do you do to stretch, help strengthen, etc?
@@ForwardTherapy So I have a 3 pound weight, on a string connected to a stick, and I use 5 pound dumbells to side to side movement, and up and down
Sounds like a good start! It also usually helps to do upper body exercises - shoulder and back, bicep and tricep exercises, as well to help the wrist.
Very useful video ❤️❤️thank you!😊
Thank you!! I'm glad it helped!
Nice dp ❤️
Thank you this helped a lot
I was stung by a wasp a day ago and my hand is still swollen after 30 min of ice
What is causing the swelling?
There are LOTS of things that can cause hand swelling!
Wow this really helped thank you
Thank you!! I’m glad to hear it!
You are great !
Thank you!!! *heart melting*
Thank you!
Hello,
I hurt my ring finger and my little finger while playing soccer. The little finger actually got dislocated and I got it put back.
I'm still unable to make a fist and theres swelling and inflammation around the middle joints .. how can I gain full range of motion if that's still possible
How long ago was the injury?
@@ForwardTherapy it happened three weeks ago
Be very very gentle with it. If you haven’t yet seen a doctor I would recommend you get X-rays and make sure the joint wasn’t damaged (sometimes when they’re relocated on the playing field there can be ligamentous damage that occurs). It’s still so early on and it greatly depends on how severe the damage to the tissues is - I can’t advise you properly without knowing exactly the severity and what structures were damaged
When joints are dislocated, ligaments are torn or damaged. They are not well vascularized, and they take 6-8 weeks to heal. They’re important because they hold the joints stable. So if it doesn’t heal properly or doesn’t get the appropriate medical management, there can be long term damages to the joint.
@@ForwardTherapy okay I understand that would be my next step i will go get an xray done just to make sure of what's happened in there because I feel theres been some damage from within. I'll let you know what I find. Than you for help I appreciate it
Thank you lady!
Can cracking damage our hand
There has been no evidence to suggest damage due to cracking your knuckles gently! Shouldn’t be painful and you don’t want to be extremely aggressive with it to avoid overloading.
Thx for your help 😁
@@ForwardTherapy thx for your help
I'm 14 ears old and my fingers feel swollen, numb and when I bend my fingers it hurts. First it started with my pinky then with all my fingers except my thumbs. Any advice please respond!!!
Oh, no! I’m sorry to hear that!! Sounds like a nerve - could be compression or overstretched. Likely due to positioning or posture. I’d go get a doctor to check you out and make sure there isn’t something else going on!
@@ForwardTherapy thank you for responding
@@iamdissapointed6810 How are you now? Did it get better?
All my fingers on my right hand and my toes on my right foot got swollen because of the cold, i heared that resting the swollen part of the body in warm water with salt in it for 10 to 15 minutes would relive the redness and swelling, I've tried it and its not itchy anymore. I wanted to know how long it takes for it to get fully better just in case it doesnt cause my google is glitching
i really appriciate you and your channel because you answer people's comments and questions and always try to respond to check in and ask them if they are okay 🙂
Thank you! Hope everything gets better soon!
How would I do it if I have a cast?
Depends on where the fracture is! If your fingers are free, move them as much as possible like seen in the video!! Sometimes casts are made to come up too high, preventing full finger movement. If this is the case and you have a broken wrist, in which the fingers don’t need to be immobilized, go back to the doctor or casting tech and ask them to free up the fingers. But always refer to your doctor - they know exactly what needs to be immobilized!
Your the best very practical ty
Thanks again you are awesome,!!!!!
Welp😅 broken arm cant do this😢
I have swollen fingers because of winters.Will it work??
It depends! Sometimes there are vascular conditions like raynauds that cause swelling and that isn’t always as affected by this type of exercise
AMAZING it really works!!! Thank
you
Yay! I’m so glad it helped for you!!!
@@ForwardTherapy I woke up this morning with my hand swollen plus my ring was stuck so I was freaking out because I couldn't get it off!! so I found your video and like Magic the swollenness went down and my ring came off. Thank you thank you thank you
Ah that’s the worst feeling ever! I’ve had my ring get stuck before and it was scary enough to make me never wear it to bed again! So glad it worked (:
Thank you. I am going to try these.
I hope some of these ideas work for you!!
You are a great teacher 💕
How many times in a day??
As much as needed, but usually recommend 2-3 times a day baseline
@@ForwardTherapy thnx
thanks !
My hand hurts too much to do this
I'm sorry it hurts so much! I'd recommend elevating the hand, using ice 10-15 minutes to help with the pain. but some protected gentle movement can help, too! just be gentle.
Thanks so much! 👍
How long can it stay swollen? I was outside walking yesterday and my hand were really cold, now they’re swollen so does it naturally go away?
it should! but swelling can hang in there a while (depending on the reason).
Spending an amazing evening with you would help me greatly
I cant bend my fingers I carried over 800 25 pound bricks what else can I do besides squeeze my hand
Ice, elevation, and gentle active movement opening and closing the fingers (spreading them apart and bringing them together) are all good ways to reduce swelling
thank you for the help!!
My knuckle got swollen a little bit any advice ?
Because of an injury that happened?
Forward Therapy nope I scratched myself on it but I went to an doctor now it’s all better!
I’m so glad!!
Madam any table name give me for swealling in my hand finger
Swelling in the fingers can be tricky! Ice and elevation are a good place to start, and you can try these pumping exercises (movement tends to really help), or try a contrast bath (switching between cool and warm water), or try retrograde massage ua-cam.com/video/qlIJ-1fXxOw/v-deo.html I hope that helps! Good luck with your finger!
