My husband (end stage copd) has a swollen left hand that is very warm to the touch for over four weeks now and the swelling has started to extend to his wrist. His hand is becoming stiff, sore, and painful. He has tried elevating his hand, hand exercises, and ice but nothing is working. At first, his doctors thought it might be cellulitis and has prescribed several different types of antibotics but nothing seems to help.
Has anyone else experienced anything like this?
