A member asked:
When someone gains about 20 to 30lbs is that enough weight to cause the fingers to swell? i can't hardly wear any of my rings anymore.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Weight Gain: Yes, that could definitely cause swelling in the fingers. The more important question is why the 20-30 pound weight gain?
