My husband had a double bypass Monday coming will 7 weeks. I noticed yesterday that his left hand is swollen. He’s got a doctor’s appt today. It could be the medications. Who notice. Has anyone has experienced this? Thx

Hello

I have had swollen ankles and feet but so far not my hand

It will no doubt be something simple that has caused this and I hope your Doctor will be able to reassure you both and make any changes needed to help the swelling go down

If you have time it would be interesting to know what they say has caused it

Hope everything goes ok and the rest of your Husband's recovery is going well x

Hello

Sounds like you have a little water retention and they should take it down x

By all means check, but swollen ankles are very common so swollen hands as another extremity seems another symptom.
