Question 1

why is the right side of my body swollen?

Accepted Answer

See your doctor asap: Ccould be any number of causes so see your doctor for a work up.

Question 2

what could be causing the right side of my body to be swollen?

Accepted Answer

Too many things: Sorry, that list is far too long to be helpful to you.
Would need to know what parts are involved, how long you have had, is it getting better or worse, other symptoms you have noticed, medications you are on or have changed recently, and underlying medical conditions.
Unfortunately, even that may not be helpful, as certain physical findings need to be seen by a physician to be analyzed properly.

Question 3

the right side of my body is swollen even my vagina. what could be the problem?

Accepted Answer

Strange: I can think of no condition that would cause one side of the body to swell. If this perception persists, i recommend that you have a physician examine you.

Question 4

when i wake up my entire right side of my body is swollen/retaining fluid. even my eyelid!! why just the one side of my body?

Accepted Answer

Problem with lymphat: ic drainage?  If it was systemic shouldn't be just one side.  I would go to a vascular surgeon at your nearest University Medical Center to get a detailed workup.

Question 5

why is the left side of my body swollen from my foot to my face?

Accepted Answer

: This is very unusual and requires an exam by your doc. Good luck

Question 6

i'm currently recovering from ohss due to ivf. i woke up with a swollen back on the right side of my body and it's aching. what does this mean?

Accepted Answer

Poss cyst rupture: If you are having significant pain, you may have had a cyst rupture. IV if really bad, you could have a torsion, when the ovary gets twisted. If it's bad, call your MD. The swelling is likely to the excess fluid you tend to have with OHSS, and if you have been laying on one side, it will settle on that side.

Question 7

right hand is swollen and so much pain .pain runs down my right side of my body?

Accepted Answer

Not sure!: Swelling implies some type of inflammation, or less likely a circulation problem. Radiating pain suggests a possible pinched nerve. Not common that these two things occur together.  Many possible causes for these rather general complaints.  Get it checked out by your doctor.

Question 8

my right side of my body from my fingers to my feet are swollen . even my  adomadel area. this has been going on for 6 years at least . only my wrist isn't swollen . what can this be?

Accepted Answer

Not factual: your description is not verifiable. Unless it is verified by a physician, it sounds like a subjective complaint.

Question 9

after i swim i get swollen lymph nodes for a couple days (on the right side of my body) in my groin area, neck, & armpit. i'm not sick at all. ?

Accepted Answer

Interesting.....: I'm assuming that it goes away after those "couple days"?  I don't know why you would have one-sided lymphadenopathy (swollen lymph glands) unless it has something to do with contact in the water, like chlorine.  I suggetst that you go to see a doctor while the glands are swollen so that he can check you out (maybe make your appointment and go swimming first!) any other symptoms: rash, fever, etc?

Question 10

the left side of my body is a little swollen. i can feel that there is a difference in each side of my body. what does that mean?

Accepted Answer

May be normal: It is not unusual to have asymmetry of sides anywhere in our body. Asymmetry doesn't mean that there is swelling or abnormal deformity. If you still have concerns have an examination by a physician for reassurance.
