You are developing dye induced cellulitis due to the contrast given for Contrast CT scan. Do ice compression, keep your hand raised up or at least at level (don't let it hanging). Start Tab. Chymoral forte thrice daily before meal for 5days. If no improvement in 2-3days, consult a General Surgeon for assessment and any intervention if needed.
