What causes this?Help!?

Question: I am a female and my hands have been swelling! just to look at them you cant tell they are swollen, but my rings are tight and when i bend my fingers i can REALLY tell they are swollen because they feel so tight! What causes this??

Answers:
water retention..drink lots of water..lay off salt.Get some high energy cardio in daily.

Other Answers:
Maybe your ring is too tight, well, no, that doesn't fit.
Hmmm . . . I would call your doctor, or maybe you are eating something you are mildly allergic to.
Hope that helped.

If you are dehydrated, your body will start to hold on to (retain) water and that causes swelling. Start drinking water (not pop or gatorade or anything--just water). If you get 48-64 oz. of water in and you're still swelling, then maybe make an appointment to go to the doctor to have it checked out. For me, drinking water has always helped when my rings get tight from swelling. Best of luck! Sounds like water retention to me too. This time of year my hands do the same thing if I don't drink enough water. Make sure you lay off the salt and drink plenty of water. Hope that helps!!
