My mother is 79 and is experiencing very swollen hands and arms. They are extremely painful, blotchy, red and burning hot. The pain is unbearable. It takes a couple of days for the swelling to go down. She has been investigated for stroke which was ruled out. Then blood clots, she is now referred to as a mystery.
The latest thought is gout? Can anyone offer any advice please the pain killers are not touching the pain?
