Swelling in right hand
My father suddenly got severe swelling on Sunday in his right hand (top not palm) and one finger. It seems to be an insect bite. He is taking combiflam as advised by other doctor however the swelling is still there. How many days will it take to recover and do we need to do anything else. Apply some ointment or take medicine
