Dear Romie24,

my name is Sasha and my husband, age 24, has been experiencing swollen hands and feet. I was wondering what happened with your grandson. Were you ever able to find out the cause of his swelling? Did it eventually clear itself up?
My husband has been battling with this medical mystery for about 3 years now.
We have been to numerous doctors and he's been tested for Cancer, blood clots, fractures, you name it, we've probably been through it.
I am so desperate to find any sort of clue as to what could be going on.
I appreciate you reading this.
I hope everything with your grandson turned out okay!

Sincerely,

Sasha L.

Hello Romie~Maybe he was bitten by some type of insect and this caused a reaction. If it gets worse and does not go away, I would have it checked.
