There could be any number of reasons why your finger is red and swollen - but it usually indicates some type of inflammation. It happens to me because of arthritis. I suggest you talk to a doctor.
it could be an infection you should see a doctor.
Jammed and then unjammed ??If it had been jammed into something it will be red and swollen. If small piece of skin has been jammed it might go purple. It will be very painful. IT IS VERY VERY VERY PAINFUL, so dont do it stupid... :D
The vulva and vagina can be red, swollen, and painful.
If the red swollen mark at the back of your hand seems like a raised red welt and there is a spot on the middle and feels so itchy and painful, then probably it is a spider bite.
Go to a doctor or hospital immediately!
No, from my experience, the fins will remain in your hand most of the time. It is painful and can lead to infections. A few years ago, while cutting a pargo, one of the fishbones got stuck in my finger. I neglected it, but it was really painful. After a week or so, my finger could not move anymore and it was swollen and red. Had to go to the doctor, who cut it open, extracted the piece of fishbone, close it up and gave me antibiotics. In short, if you have fishbones in your finger, try to take it out or go see a doctor. PS: If it is a relatively small fishbone, it might dissolve, but I am not sure about that.
When it is any of the following; swollen, tender, red, throbbing, painful or sensitive.
sore eyes
If its been swollen, discolored (red/purple), or itchy for more than 2-3 weeks. Or if the drainage from the piercing is a dark yellow/greenish color. It could just be irritated if its red and swollen. Go check with your piercer to be sure.
I think it could be a stye but I'm not sure. i have the same thing. and it is really sore.
Normally it would be red with pus and very swollen. It would be unusually painful and you would defiantly know.
