Swelling In a 11 Year Olds Fingers Posted: 09-23-03 15:06pm
My daughter who is 11 years old is getting
swelling in her fingers. Any idea what
would cause this? Salt intake was our
only guess, but she does not use alot of
salt.

???swelling?? Posted: 09-23-03 17:40pm
Uh oh...I have never heard of
that...Scary....The only thing I can think
of is you know how when you walk for a
long time and your fingers start to swell
from all the blood...Maybe its just filled
with fluid or blood..Have you taken her to
a doctor?? That might help ya never
know....Maybe they could do a biopsy!!!
Good luck!!
I hope I was usefull!!!

Swelling of any kind can be a sign of a
heart abnormality...Have her looked at for
that. My son has an arythmic heart and
gets swelling sometimes.
