Oedema: Arm swelling can be due to infection, injury, inflammation, blockage of lymphatic ducts or a blood clot in your arm veins. If the symptoms do not resolve you will need to see your doctor to determine the cause and treat accordingly

Needs examination : To work out whether swelling due to a blood clot or a muscle or tendon problem/inflammation or an issue with the joint. Or even secondary to a nerve problem. Therefore requires examination and may need tests. Please consult a doctor
