As you have recently had an operation and the swollen hand has caused you to worry I do suggest that you either go to the place you had your operation for them to look at it and check your chest pain, or to your own doctor to give you a check up.
We all worry and tend to put two and two together and get five which is as wrong as we are when we get the results from the experts. Best of luck and hope you are soon well. [ Moggie's advice column | Ask Moggie A Question ]
