Yes, that's my left hand which is swelling right now because of the plaster pressing hard to prevent my stitch to bleed. I was worried earlier so I removed the plaster. The stitch is still bleeding and I haven't clean it yet and put a new clean plaster. Awhile ago it was painful and I took the pain reliever they gave me.
I am still writing using my right hand where my old access is.
And here is my swelling left hand.

@LadyDuck i think at this time she needs to be patient, even if she's bored. if it keeps bleeding, then maybe she should contact her doctor or the hospital, etc.

@hereandthere Keeping the arm still is the best thing she can do.

I don't know. I will have it check next week if it's still bleeding.

why don't you elevate your left arm so the venous return flow will do its job? i hope you don't put down your arm, and maintain it elevated.

@JustBhem yes, cramps happen too, but between the '2 evils', what side effect would you prefer, the cramps or the swelling?
