My right arm is swollen from the fingertips to the elbow. I have had two stents placed in an artery from my right wrists because of a myocardial infarction, but this occurred in September of this year. No thrombosis was found and no infection through blood cultures. In other words, no answer?
Hello, It can be a sign of cellulitis which is nothing but a spreading infection of subcutaneous tissue. Can you attach a picture in the follow-up query to get a better clinical picture? Once the diagnosis is confirmed you might require antibiotics and most cases respond well to antibiotics. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Chat Doctor.
