What's wrong with my hand?

Too many needle pricks while my time in the hospital, now my hands look so different. Does anyone else face the same issue, got any diagnosis done ? Please reach out!

Thanks

  1. There is a definitie difference between your hands, ! Have your doctors given you any ideas as to what could be causing this? I have to admit that I'm stumped. I haven't come across another case quite like yours. Are you experiencing any other symptoms in your hand, like pain or numbness? Does it feel like water retention? The only thought that comes to mind is Lymphedema -- https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/lymphedema/symptoms-causes/syc-20374682. Please know I am in no way attempting to diagnose you or offer medical advice, but have your doctors mentioned lymphedema?

    I wish I had some other answers for you. I do hope you are able to get a correct diagnosis (and some relief!) very soon!
