Q: Tips of Fingers Swelling/help

asked by: drpepper0 on October 10th, 2006

Hey y'all. I am a 21 year old female; 5'6, 115 lbs. Two times when I was holding a cold drink, the tips of my fingers started to swell. They did not change colors. Once I warmed them up, the swelling went down. The only health "problems" I have is slight mitral valve prolapse and hypotension. Why do you think my fingers swell when exposed to cold?
