Swelling?: If you have arm swelling and this was not preceded by an injury it could be vein. However, if not, this is likely nerve related and could also be from an injury to adjacent muscles. Nerve/muscle is more likely and this could even be coming from your neck or carpal tunnel. The best way to figure it out is to see your doctor and get examined.
